Hardwood floors, updated kitchen, 3.54 acres, brook in backyard which leads to Farmington River has wild trout. Wild! Not stocked by CT Fish and Game. A wood footbridge in the backyard goes over the brook leading to a freestanding screened porch "summer house" and up the banking's path are older chicken coops, a quail coop, and the ruins of a pig pen. No water at animal pens, but prior owners used a pump at the brook with a hose. South facing roof would be good for solar. Tankless Navien heat/hotwater fueled by propane. Septic/well, no issues. Driveway and concrete pad with carport, which will convey, fit total of 5-6,maybe 7 cars. 2 car garage burned down prior to current owners, leaving a concrete pad the current owners put a carport / boat shelter on, drilled into concrete and sturdy. Rebuilding the garage is possible using existing concrete footprint, without enlarging it. Tile floor in kitchen, hardwood elsewhere. 5 apple trees and 14 blueberry bushes around the house, mostly in front. Primary bedroom has a tall thin closet that locks. Motion lights in front. No attic access. Generator transfer switch right outside walkout basement door. Thermopane windows. Big freezer in basement does not convey. Grocery shopping, big box stores, medical offices, university, boutiques, restaurants, juice bars, etc. in Winsted, 10 min drive on Rte 20. Not in a flood zone. Quick drive to several state parks with many hiking trails, swimming holes, camping facilities, etc. People come from all over to fish the Farmington River and the section in Riverton is one of the best in US and Canada, as per the book "50 Best Tailwaters to Fly Fish." If you are a Stephen King fan, watch "Mr. Harrigan's Phone" on Netflix which was filmed in Riverton. 2022 Annual taxes are $4409 total, and of that $258 is Barkhamsted Fire District Tax. $130 per year to rent the 2 propane tanks from Klebe Fuel and average for propane was $150 a month for current Sellers.
