Lovely - this is the only way to describe this property. Just lovely. This home was built with the utmost care in 2016. There is an attached heated garage that enters into the mudroom that doubles as the laundry room and opens directly into your kitchen. The kitchen sink has a bay window overlooking the oversize screened in porch. There are beautiful stainless steel appliances, soft close doors and drawers, plenty of island seating, and an oversized pantry. The floorplan was exceptionally thoughtful since it can fully support single level living. There is a bedroom on the main level and a gorgeous walk in tiled shower with grab bars. Upstairs is another full bath and 2 bedrooms plus an independent office space. Easy bulkhead or internal access to the basement with high ceilings, a high efficiency propane boiler, and plenty of storage. The exterior checks all the boxes. There are blueberries, rhubarb, irises, tulips, daffodils, lillies, hosta, and even an apple orchard with a variety of Bethel Apple! The seller had a whole book devoted to the seasons of life this garden holds, you can see it when you tour! What are all the stones in the photos?? We call them "the ruins." Originally these sellers lived in a home from 1800's that was closer to the road on the property. It was always their dream to build a house on the hill and finally when that original home was worn out they carefully deconstructed it, left the foundation and filled it with stone as a lovely homage to the original structure and a place to enjoy the flowers. A modern twist to a normal a patio space. The land spans both sides of the road with Lilliesville Brook babbling in the background. Lilliesville was originally a thriving little hamlet of Bethel with mills, sheep, schoolhouses, and barrel makers. Now it is a sweet hidden gem of a neighborhood that enjoys the forests and the stream.
