Welcome to your private New England retreat in the heart of Middle Haddam. Nestled along a scenic country road and just moments from the 1,000 acres of trails, river views, and natural beauty of Hurd State Park, this impeccably maintained 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial offers the perfect blend of peaceful surroundings and modern comfort. Pride of ownership shines throughout this move-in ready home, featuring a brand-new roof installed last year, new central air conditioning, and a new well pump. The spacious eat-in kitchen boasts granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant pantry storage, and flows seamlessly into the impressive family room with soaring cathedral ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace with insert, and abundant natural light. The French door leads to an elevated deck overlooking the private backyard. The main level also offers a formal dining room, additional living room, convenient half bath, and beautiful hardwood flooring. Upstairs, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, stylish luxury vinyl plank flooring, and recently renovated bathrooms. A partially finished walkout lower level provides flexibility for future living space, recreation, or a home office. Enjoy your morning coffee from the welcoming front porch or unwind on one of two rear decks surrounded by nature. Rarely does a home combine this level of care, recent updates, and idyllic location.
