    What's special

    Stop the press! Ever-elusive, often sought, rumored but rarely found; the perfect downsize house has finally come on the market in Essex! Run, don't walk to see this craftsman-style ranch and property before it is briefly glimpsed and then - poof! Gone. Stories of having barely missed out are bound to follow. Both indoors and out, this property is an absolute delight! The new stone terrace with fire pit could be a great place to gather to celebrate your good fortune in securing this home for the next stage of your life. True one floor living in 2,167sf of pure comfort and style set on 1.26 manicured acres offering privacy and winter water views. Master suite luxury bath features dual sinks, tub and shower. Second bedroom w/full bath, plus additional guest bedroom. The kitchen is delightful. Gas cooktop, wall ovens, granite counter tops and a spacious breakfast bar open to a lovely dining area overlooking the rear lawn. This area opens through French doors to a grand family/living room with beamed ceiling, fireplace and more French doors leading to a covered deck that spans the rear of the house. An office/study lies just off the front entry. Exquisite custom craftsmanship is evident, with built-ins, crown molding, cabinetry and five-inch oak flooring throughout. A propane-fired stand-by generator and new propane furnace offer peace of mind. Just minutes from Essex village shops, restaurants, marinas, yacht clubs and the CT river. Two hours from NYC or Boston. The time is now!
