The 1950’s cedar shingle Cape has been taken down to the studs & undergone a complete architectural redesign & renovation to the highest specification. The property offers commanding views of Hadlyme hills, Gillette’s Castle & CT River. Upon entering, you will be greeted with unrivaled space & style. A state of the art kitchen with granite & stainless, opens to the family room with 1 of 3 wood burning fireplaces. The open floor plan provides a perfect balance between time together & relaxing time alone. The main floor, flooded with an abundance of natural light, features formal dining & living rooms along with a guest bedroom, an office & a first floor master bedroom with full bath & an enviable walk in closet with adjoining laundry room. Upstairs, 2 generously sized bedrooms, both of which are en suite, ensure there is ample space for everyone. Above the newly constructed 3 car garage is the ideal setting for an artist studio or guest quarters with design & framing already complete. Blessed with natural beauty, a grassy yard that extends 65’ beyond the back stone wall & an expansive, heated, in ground pool, there isn’t much more you could want in a home. Combining timeless style with luxury & practicality, 23 Gilbert Hill Road is a home that will not fail to impress.
