Majestically sited on the crest of a hill punctuated with hand laid field-stone walls, rock outcroppings, gardens and overlooking a bucolic pond, this lovely custom colonial exudes quiet elegance with quality appointments and design. A warm and welcoming residence, it is fabulous for entertaining with a state of the art Chef's Kitchen highlighted by premium appliances and a large island for both prep work and dining. There is ample room for everyone to congregate and relax making it the heart of the home. Sparkling occasions are steps away in the formal Dining and Living rooms while the Family room with gas log brick clad fireplace is a perfect place for casual gatherings. A fully built out Office with dual desks and bookcases makes working at home a joy. On the upper level are four well sized bedrooms including the Master Suite which boasts a fully renovated bath and walk in closet. A second full bath services the other rooms and a Laundry room is conveniently located on this floor. The lower level has an Exercise or Recreational room and separate workshop. In addition to the attached two car garage, there is a separate country barn for two to three more vehicles. Mature landscaping, a patio with fire-pit, Hardie Plank siding, Azek trim, replacement windows and newly repaved drive make this a maintenance free property to be treasured. Old Lyme offers country charm and modern amenities with quaint inns, extraordinary museums, boutiques, restaurants and marinas.
