Come be rejuvenated. Here find peace in your own pocket paradise. Soak in the tranquility. Feed the birds & they will sing for you from morning till sundown. Care for their homes & they will raise their families here. Feed the goldish in their little vernal pond. The shady pondside rock garden will bloom with fragrant lilies of the valley soon. The sunny yard welcomes you. The level lawn melts to shady woods. Many cheerful perennial flower gardens abound. Race the birds to the blueberries! The fruit trees will be bearing apples or peaches in a season or two. It's time to plant your veggies in the sunny garden. From the elevated perch of the little eagle's nest, survey your domain & meet with the council by torchlight. Then there is the rustic redoubt: a place to pull up a stump to sit on & gather in the woods warmed by the chiminea. The secret garden - tots rule! No big people allowed! (although they may secretly surveil from the kitchen window). Speaking of secrets, you could probably find a nook to hide a chicken or two. If the borough burgesses come snooping, you have eggs for them. At $9/doz, its worth being an outlaw. Gather for s'mores or libations. As night falls, it is a perfect time to relax on the private deck & take in the reflection of light on the little vernal pool, the twinkling of the lights in the gardens, the stalwart stone walls bathed in soft light. Truly enchanting. Reports of fairy visits are unconfirmed - feelings of peaceful solitude are.

Remarks addendumSimply soul-soothing. The home has been well-loved by one careful owner. It is charming & cheerful, with an open, nice living flow. The large living room is bathed in southern sun. The handsome woodburning FP is great for cocooning on a chilly night. The dining room is very open & flexible, seating 6. On a holiday, the main table can extend endlessly: No kid's table or Siberia for guests. The delightful sunroom enjoys a fine 270-degree view of the lawn, the pond, firepit & kiddie garden. The eat-in kitchen is bright with plenty of cabinets & good counterspace. The large pantry has a walk-up stairway to the attic storage. There are good hardwood floors thruout most of the home. There is comfy central AC. There are great expansion possibilities in the lower level. It is tall, bright, with large windows. Right now, it is a great place for recreation, a workshop or a rainy-day tricycle track. There is ample storage & great closet space. The owner will credit to turn the lower level, the garage or the family room into the 3rd BR. If desired, they will credit to change the walk-in shower to a tub/shower. The home is quite accessible. If desired, there is a very discreet, convenient interior ramp that can be installed. The neighbors are great. The neighborhood is tidy & the folks are friendly. The sidewalks are brightened by streetlamps. You can hear the far-off train whistle or bells on the breeze occasionally. The ice cream man's song delights everyone. Its worth hearing La Cucaracha 110 times for an ice cream. Short walk to Salem Elementary School. Their motto is " Where the Future Begins." Leap ye Salem Leopards! They have a kid's dream playscape there. Hillside Elementary is a short walk. Their sports teams are the Eagles so the motto "Soars with Eagles" fits. Naugatuck High is close. Their motto is "Pursue your excellence" Go Greyhounds! It is an easy walk to the historic Borough Green. Contemplate magnificent monuments, venerable houses of worship. The stately library is well-equipped. Enjoy great summer concerts & events. Duck Day on the river & the annual Feast. Graze all day: coffee, lunch, fast food, fine & casual dining. The YMCA will help you burn it off. There are super parks. Linden Park: tennis, playscapes, pavilion. Hike Joe's Rock, High Rock, Whittemore Glen State Park. Good golf is handy. Boating, fishing at Hopbrook Lake Rec Area. Come see!
