On the banks of Ash Creek with a truly breathtaking vista, it's easy to see why there have been only two owners of this charming house since its 1928 construction! Beneath the gabled roof, a delightful front porch with jalousie windows beckons entry into the inviting foyer. Well scaled main level rooms include Living Room with French doors, Dining Room with views of the water, and Eat In Kitchen, all with higher than average ceiling height and filled with bright natural light. Full bathroom w/shower and rear seasonal sun porch opening to the backyard completes the main level. Three Bedrooms, all with walk in closets (the Primary bedroom has two walk in closets) and a hall bathroom with tub and marble tiled floor complete the upstairs. The attic w/hatch entry is partially floored, the full basement w/laundry offers plenty of extra space, and the detached two car garage is oversized offering even more storage. This home has been consistently well cared for, including newer roof and mechanicals. Sunrises, tides ebbing & flowing, egrets and osprey in their natural habitat, unobstructed views where sky and land meets water- this natural setting is pure serenity. Stroll to nearby Ash Creek Park, Jennings Beach and Marina while also enjoying easy proximity to the numerous amenities and conveniences of Fairfield's vibrant town center: restaurants, shopping, library, theaters & Metronorth train.
