Looking to be near beaches, woods, yet close to conveniences such as shopping, restaurants and fun activities? Enjoy it all here at 79-2 Rowland Rd. in the quintessential CT town of Old Lyme. At the end of the road sits a Post And Beam constructed home of wonderful dimensions. With over 2900 solid built sq. ft., 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and In-Law suite, you can't ask for much more in a country retreat. A granite stone fireplace adds ambience and warmth to the open living dining space, and can be enjoyed from the kitchen as well, as the floor plan is mostly open. Fun fact:As post and beam aficionados know, in a post and beam built home, walls can be easily taken down or put up without worrying about sacrificing structural integrity. Outside, this country home sits on 5 acres with a spring fed pond to fish, an inground pool and not to be overlooked, 2 large outbldgs. One is a large 2 car garage with a spacious loft and the other is affectionately called a “man-cave” by the owners, as it is equipped with a hydraulic car lift as well as room to house all your machinery, another car or two, or whatever your heart desires. A winding driveway and a spacious lawn, a 3 season porch as well as a rocking chair porch from which to view sunsets each evening while overlooking your domain. You are home.
