As a genre, Mid-Century moderns offer comfort above all and a sense of belonging. Maybe it's the rock gardens, the clean lines and chantilly white palette, the windows that fill the house with light and air, or the expanse of green that draws you into the landscape. Whatever it is - it's soothing, comfortable and resonates with people that are passionate about design. Lounsbury is a classic that withstands the test of time. There were loads of ranch homes constructed with those groovy Mad Men vibes, yet very few remain true to form. Lounsbury is one of not many. It has been in our family since it was built in the 50's and now it can be yours. Over time, the house has seen over $200K in improvements, all done carefully with respect to the original form. What sets this home apart is the location. The yard is magical and compels you to kick your shoes off and sink your toes into the lush organic grass that goes waaaayyyy back. The .71 acre lot is the depth of a baseball field (yes, seriously). You've got room to grow up to about 4,200 +/- sq/ft and have plenty of yard left to play, swim, and farm. It's a location you won't see the likes of again any time soon. The neighborhood is fantastic for outdoor activities and its walking distance to Lake Mohegan and North Stratfield Elementary. Minutes to the Merritt, grocery stores, playgrounds, golf courses, biking & running trails - it's an ideal hub for all of life's everyday conveniences. See tour link for details.
