This well-built 1794 Cape Colonial came with many attractive details like wide plank hardwood flooring, central fireplace, functional layout and a level 1 acre lot with two outbuildings. It was a great start for our client who returned to this Connecticut shoreline town that she enjoyed as a child.

The Main House interior received an overall refresh of finishes with efforts focused on updating the primary suite, guest baths, the kitchen and the butler’s pantry. The Main House exterior was enhanced with new cedar and metal roofs, additional trim details, a spacious screened porch and a generous stone patio.

A short walk down a garden path sits a two-story barn that was converted into a welcoming Guest House. Sliding barn doors and a bronze glass door frame the entry to an open living space, complete with a full kitchen, living and dining areas. Upstairs, guests will find a bedroom, full bath, and cozy TV area.

Nestled at the back of the property, an old corn crib has been transformed into a useful potting shed with storage.

The blend of indoor and outdoor living spaces makes it easy to enjoy all this property has to offer.
