Property Description
Historic 1800s waterfront home nestled in a beautiful and tranquil area yet close to major roads for easy access. The home borders Northfield Pond allowing for fishing, paddleboarding, kayaking, ice skating and more right from your own backyard. Abundant town and state land surround the property offering privacy, hiking and a buffer from development. The home has 3 lovely bedrooms all with original flooring. The primary bedroom is spacious with a large walk-in closet/office area. The walk-up attic has two rooms not included in the square footage which provides easy expansion possibilities. A screened sunroom, back deck, stone firepit and patio with a built-in barbecue offer a variety of entertaining options or the perfect setting for a quiet sunrise. The home has been completely updated with a newer roof, updated electrical, vinyl siding, windows, kitchen and baths. Original hardwood floors and wood beams, fireplace and newly updated fixtures offer an appealing mix of heritage and modern convenience. Town card lists 1910 as date built but historical documents indicate it was built around 1830. The town of Litchfield is brimming with small town charm, centered around an historic green. The beautiful and vibrant town offers arts and culture, many community events and festivals, fine cuisine and cute shops. The area has an abundance of outdoor activities including hiking, biking, horseback riding, multiple state parks, Bantam Lake, skiing, wineries, farms and much more.
