    What's special

    Leave the city, travel up Litchfield Turnpike, veer right onto Downs road and enter "Vermont Like"adventure. The scenic route home is one of the reasons that beautiful Downs Road sells! The Bethany Lake, part of the reservoir and RWA land is there in front of you with visions of West Rock Ridge on the vista horizon. It is so peaceful here, the quaintness of Bethany, yet minutes from Woodbridge line and the convenience of Westville highways and shopping. This seller is trained in the art of renovation techniques that spare no quality! Whatever is improved upon is done to its finest quality. A home inspector would be quite impressed with the workmanship; all new cedar siding on the home, new windows (some quaint Cottage style" ), a sunroom overlooking the farmland, tiled eat in kitchen with bay window, window box and plenty of space for a large kitchen table. The bathroom is new too. Even the basement is mint, almost finished on one side, leaving plenty of room for a tool room w/sink; and a large storage room w/newer well equipt, 200 amp service, set up for a generator and more. The two car garage is huge and boasts heat! The seller has added a front porch addition with engineered plans registered in the town hall, beautiful custom stonework up to the front door and handsome wrought iron railings. New driveway and underground utilities are just the beginning of describing the exterior. The grounds have updated landscaping, fruit orchards and three outbuildings (two with electric and running water hydrant...for any of your family needs). Bethany is a very special town, it is a community of families active and varied with specialities that are unique to its area; i.e., horses, education and agriculture. The Amity School system and the location between New Haven and the Rte 8 corridor towards Hartford make it also a great place to discover.
