Bathed in sunlight and draped in hues of white and gray, this quintessential 1930's Connecticut cottage is the home that dreams are made of. Comprehensively renovated from top to bottom in 2018, this 3BR/2BA beauty is exactly what one envisions in a country home. A jewel box that makes no compromise in luxe appointments: from the refinished hardwood floors, to the Manhattan-quality kitchen and bathrooms to an indulgent outdoor environment with sparkling, sunlit gunite pool. The mechanical systems are new and of the highest quality, as are the fixtures and appliances throughout, including names like Wolf, Bosch, Bain Ultra, Rohl, really no expense was spared in the restoration of this special home.
