Less than 5 minutes from the town beach, this cute 2 bedroom charmer offers a few surprising design features such as a spacious eat-in kitchen, vaulted ceilings and skylights. The sense of light and space established in the kitchen is echoed by the lower level family room with the adjacent half bath and walk-out basement supplying laundry, storage or workshop space. Sited on nearly one acre on a quiet country road, there is elbow room a-plenty with a deck off the living room for casual out-door living opportunities. Located half way between New York and Boston, whether you are looking for a year-round home or a simple pied-a-terre, Old Lyme offers town and State beaches, an art museum and galleries, shopping and restaurants, all nearby.
