    What's special

    Discover an exceptional residence that seamlessly blends the tranquility of a private retreat with the charm of small-town living-just a short drive from both Hartford and the Connecticut shoreline. Nestled in the picturesque town of Columbia, 9 Gavin Drive is a remarkable custom colonial set on nearly four secluded acres at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, offering a true sense of privacy and serenity. Inside, an expansive open-concept design unfolds with effortless elegance. The dramatic family room is anchored by soaring double-height ceilings, a magnificent fieldstone fireplace, and a striking wall of floor-to-ceiling windows that bathe the space in natural light. The updated kitchen is appointed with stainless steel appliances, a five-burner gas cooktop, water filtration system, and an adjoining butler's pantry designed for both convenience and sophisticated entertaining. The main level also features a fantastic sunroom with sliding doors leading to a newly framed deck, an elegant formal dining room, a full bath and separate powder room, as well as two additional flexible spaces perfectly suited for a media room, formal living room, office or playroom. Upstairs, an impressive interior balcony overlooks the family room below, enhancing the home's architectural presence. The luxurious primary suite has been extensively redesigned to create a true sanctuary, highlighted by a lavish spa-inspired bath featuring a classic clawfoot soaking tub, an oversized walk-in shower with three shower heads, and an extraordinary custom walk-in closet that must be seen to be appreciated. Three additional generously sized bedrooms and a beautifully appointed full bath complete the upper level. The finished area in the basement has tile floors and is perfect for a playroom or work out space, with ample storage in the remaining SF. UPGRADES: 2020 - remodeled primary, second floor full, and first floor powder room baths. Fresh paint and new fridge. 2021 - replaced AC's and air handlers, and exterior stone on chimney. 2024 - new front walk, steps, and driveway. 2025 - reframed deck with composite decking, new microwave and dishwasher.
