This fully updated and immaculate Colonial has everything on your wish list. As soon as you approach the home you will appreciate the level of detail that went into the construction with large 12/12 windows and flanking shutters intermixed with diamond pattern windows and a barn inspired attached garage with overhanging ridgeline. Step inside and you will be greeted with gleaming hardwood floors throughout, a wonderful kitchen with large center island, a pellet stove with warming insert and large dining area for everyone to gather together. A sliding door leads to the newly created backyard oasis with bluestone patio, BBQ area and gravel firepit hangout. A formal living room with fireplace and a family room flank the kitchen area. A dream come true home office with cathedral ceiling is also located on the main floor. Upstairs there is a charming bedroom suite with a fireplace, dedicated changing room/closet and full bath. 2 additional bedrooms and a full bath are on the opposite side of the staircase allowing privacy for everyone. Now for the bonus- there is a large walkup unfinished 3rd floor, a walkout unfinished lower level that runs the entire length of the home AND a huge unfinished area off the primary bedroom- so many possibilities! All this + a whole house generator and the Essex Land Trust outback. Just minutes from renowned Essex Village restaurants, shops, marinas, yacht clubs, Griswold Inn, CT River Museum, CT Steam Train and the CT River!
