Charming home on historic Court Street - with original part of home dating back to 1811. Enter through the picket fence and step up to the charming front porch - recently painted. This is the perfect place to sit and enjoy the front yard - lemonade and cocktails were made just to enjoy this spot. The front door leads to the dining room - currently used as a living room. A restored, walk-in stone fireplace (restored by Chimney Savers 11/23) is the highlight of this room, along with the beamed ceiling. To the right, and open to the dining space is the living room with a decorative mantel and beamed ceiling. Step down to the updated kitchen to find shaker style cabinetry, granite counters, new sink, stone accent wall behind the stove, dining area, newly refinished random width pine flooring, and large windows overlooking the fenced in yard. A laundry and mud room is adjacent to the kitchen and accessed via a french door. This sunny room also leads out to the fenced in yard and features lots of storage and is adjacent to the powder room with granite vanity and undermount sink.
Charming butterfly stairs lead to the second floor which features 3 bedrooms. The primary bedroom has built-in storage and closets that flank windows as well as a sweet window seat providing additional storage. There are two additional bedrooms, the larger of which features a vaulted beadboard ceiling with original beams, track lighting and exposed stone wall. The hall bath on this level features a shower, beadboard wainscot and a pedestal sink. The third level is a suite that provides a birds eye view of the rooftops in Newtown. A bedroom with gabled ceiling opens to a spacious bath with Kohler jetted tub, pedestal sink, and large storage closets.
A converted garage provides additional living space. This room has dramatic cathedral ceiling, gas fireplace, custom built-ins, recessed lighting and serves as an additional family room, office, and game room. There is additional storage on the exterior of this building for garden tools and toys. A sweet shed also provides a place to store potting materials and yard tools.
Included are plans for an addition that would create a new primary suite and bath as well as create staircase from kitchen to second level.
Ideally located in town - walk to everything Newtown has to offer!
