Set on a peaceful five-acre expanse, this contemporary home feels like a hidden escape where privacy and potential come together effortlessly. Surrounded on two sides by protected land held by the Foster Land Trust, the setting creates a quiet, natural backdrop that invites you to slow down and imagine the possibilities—whether it’s creating outdoor living spaces, starting a garden, or simply enjoying the open space around you. Inside, the home unfolds with a flexible layout featuring three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including a spacious first-floor bedroom alongside a full bath and a practical laundry and mudroom area. Large windows bring in natural light, complementing the home’s contemporary style while leaving room for your personal updates and design touches. Thoughtful updates—including the roof, windows, heating system, well pump, baseboard heat, and plumbing—offer a strong foundation as you plan your next steps. All of this sits just minutes from Route 6 and Route 395 at the Connecticut border, blending rural tranquility with everyday accessibility. Property will be sold in as is condition.
