To be featured in HGTV Magazine this year This custom-built Cape is a true gem. Enjoy shimmering views of the Mystic River & be .5 miles from downtown Mystic & all that it has to offer. Both the kitchen and laundry room have been completely & tastefully updated with the last 2 years. Enter the welcoming new kitchen featuring soapstone counters, subway tile, & new appliances including a dual fuel downdraft stove. This connects to the relaxing family room wood stove & French doors, which leads out to one of two outdoor decks. To the left of the kitchen & staircase is the formal dining room & home office with built-in bookshelves, which could alternatively serve as a nursery or craft room. A spacious full bath & the new laundry room with LG large capacity D & storage area round out the the main floor. Crown molding, natural wood trim window casings, & 6" wide tongue-and-groove pine flooring give this home a timeless feel. Extra-thick insulation, low-E windows, storm windows & storm door, multi-zone heating, ceiling fans, the home's southeast facing orientation, & the option to use the wood stove as a primary heat source all work in concert to minimize energy costs. Step outside and the home features two Brazilian hardwood decks, perennial gardens, sprinkler system, enclosed partial wooden picket fence, and stone walls. The property also includes a 3-bay garage, already wired for electricity, workbench, & garage door opener. Flood insurance is NOT required
