    What's special

    Set in the heart of Centerbrook Village, this 1917 Colonial captures the timeless charm of Essex with all the right updates in place. Thoughtfully redesigned by Nautilus Architects, the kitchen blends classic craftsmanship with modern function - complemented by refinished hardwood floors, updated systems, and a new matched central air system with upgraded condenser and coil. Upstairs, the reimagined primary suite now includes a full ensuite bath and custom closet configuration, creating a true retreat. Recent 2024 improvements include a new roof, renovated bath, AC system replacement, fresh paint, and upgraded trim throughout. Outside, the half-acre lot offers space to unwind with a fenced yard, new patio, and detached barn-style garage - complete with a finished room above that makes an ideal office or studio. The seller has obtained quotes and confirmed with the town that adding a bathroom in this space is feasible (not yet approved), offering flexible potential for the next owner. Enjoy views of Falls River Pond directly across the street, where residents can launch a canoe or kayak and take in the changing seasons. Conveniently located near Essex Village, local shops, and restaurants this private setting and thoughtful updates delivers the perfect blend of heritage, comfort, and everyday ease.
