The charming beach house has been transformed from a 1949 summer cottage to a modern day home ready for year-round living. The pristine hardwood floors are original, but the rest of this house has been given a complete and total renovation. Home includes modern kitchen with all new wood cabinets, granite countertops, and black chrome appliances, living room with new propane powered fireplace insert and brand new finishes, and front porch with windows on all three sides that has been totally insulated and now functions as a dining room. Ceilings have been lifted in both the living room and the front porch. The falling down garage was reconstructed into office/yoga studio/entertaining space complete with its own deck, fireplace, cork floors and outdoor lighting. This is a special location within Old Lyme Shores as it backs up to undeveloped Edge Lea property, has a large lot with a stone wall, and provides amazing privacy for a beach house. Come enjoy this fabulous newly built property with access to one of the loveliest beach communities in Old Lyme. The field card notes this home as two bedroom, but the home has always been used as a three bedroom home. The third bedroom is temporarily configured as a walk-in closet, but could easily be converted back to a third bedroom. Also, the newly renovated office/yoga studio/entertaining space includes a propane fireplace and is approximately 240 sq ft, which is not included in the total square footage on the field card. Finally, the porch is fully finished and insulated, and therefore is included in the total square footage of 1052. Town card excludes it with a total of 780 sq ft. Field card is attached..
