Set in a desirable Sandy Hook neighborhood, this spacious home offers a chance to put down roots in Newtown, at a price point that's increasingly hard to find. The home features just under 1,900 sf of living space, plus exceptional bonus areas that truly set it apart. A bright, front-to-back living room is filled with natural light & centered around a welcoming fireplace, creating a warm gathering space. The eat-in kitchen offers great functionality with a center island, farmhouse-style sink, and stylish faucet, perfect for casual meals or entertaining. Bathrooms have been cosmetically updated. Extending the living space even further is a 532 sf screened-in porch, ideal for relaxing, hosting or enjoying the neighborhood atmosphere through the seasons. The spacious two-car attached garage connects seamlessly to the home via a versatile mudroom and features a walk-up attic located above the garage, providing excellent storage and flexibility. Set on over 1 acre, the property offers a sense of openness while still being part of an established community. Conveniently located close to commuter routes, shops, and restaurants in Sandy Hook, this home blends neighborhood charm with everyday accessibility.
