This handsome, well-sited Chestnut Hills home sits on a quiet cul de sac abutting 57 acres of association open space. This is a seldom found one-owner home, custom built by Jim Handy and cared for meticulously. A gracious foyer with open, turned stair is flanked left and right by the formal dining and living room with fireplace. A sunfilled kitchen with breakfast bar opens to the eat in area and generous great room. Walk out to the deck overlooking the grounds and open space. Upstairs find a spacious primary bedroom, full bath & walk in closet. There is a small bedroom/nursery/office adjacent with access to the walk-up attic. The second floor has two more generous bedrooms and a large bonus room. This is great flex space - possible BR/den or home office. The walkout lower level is unfinished with a 6' sliding door leading to the backyard and 1000+ sf potential rec/fitness/home theatre space. The structure of this home is incredible with solid updates including a new roof in 2022, recent mini-splits for AC, exterior paint and exterior hardscape - front and rear walkways. This home is simply perfect with room to make it your own. Just a mile to Mile Creek K-5 Elementary and close to town and beaches. Old Lyme is equally 2 hours to NY and Boston with easy access rail service and 20 minutes to US Subbase Groton, USCGA, Pfizer and Electric Boat. We'll be the first to welcome you home.
