Rare opportunity in Southbury: Cape-style home on a private 11+ acre lot at the end of a mature cul-de-sac. Built in 1984, the home offers hardwood floors throughout, an updated kitchen that opens to the family room with a fireplace, a first-floor office or bedroom, and three bedrooms upstairs-including a primary bedroom suite. There's also a finished bonus room over the garage, ideal for a playroom, studio, or additional living space. A three-season porch and back deck with awning overlook the backyard and woods. The full, unfinished walk-out basement includes large doors-perfect for driving in a tractor or storing additional vehicles-and opens to a lower-level patio. A 32x48 barn with 12-foot ceilings offers flexible space for car storage, equipment, or hobbies. Located near I-84 (Exit 16), Long Meadow Elementary, Pomperaug High School, and local amenities. No deed restrictions-just over 11 acres of land with room to work or spread out. The seller is replacing the barn roof before closing and installing a mini split for central air on the first floor.
