First time on the market! This lovingly built and kept home is in an ideal location - 1 mile to downtown New Milford, but with easy access off Route 67 for a southern commute. On 2 1/2 flat acres, you're on top of the world in this private, charming 3 bedroom, 1 1/2 bath ranch. The huge screened in porch is a bonus room off the back of the home. The sun-filled park-like acres feature beautiful fruit trees, gardens and a few fir trees, left from when the property was a Christmas Tree farm! The kitchen overlooks the property and has Silestone counters. It flows to the dining room and access to the screened in porch. The cozy living room features a large fireplace, built-in bookshelves and a western-facing picture window, just steps from the entrance alcove. Out front is a covered bluestone porch. All 3 bedrooms are good size with large closet (the largest has 2 closets). The bathroom was redone within the last 10 years, and has a tub with grab bars. Throughout are hardwood floors and lovely built-ins awaiting your collections. The full basement is dry and offers lots of storage, with one corner currently used as a small workshop. There used to be a shuffleboard court painted onto the floor to the delight of the family! There's a separate 2-car garage with ample outdoor parking, and a large outbuilding with electricity for storage or possibly more (it had running water but the line isn't currently active). The septic was replaced 2 years ago.
