    What's special

    Custom moldingsImpressive built-in shelvingNew roof on porchLarge palladian windowTons of storageCathedral ceilingGenerously sized rooms
    This is not your typical old house! Built in 1930 for the local doctor, this solidly built Colonial has had only three owners and has been meticulously maintained by each of them. An entry foyer with an impressive staircase welcomes you to hardwood floors, custom moldings, generously sized rooms and tons of storage. The expansive living room features a fireplace and beautiful built-ins. The formal dining room, with picture frame wainscoating, is perfect for family and special dinners. The beautifully updated kitchen has granite counters, stainless appliances, including an electric double-oven range, and a pantry. The extra-wide breakfast bar separates it from the eating area where you'll find a slider overlooking the backyard. The doctor's former office is now a spacious family room with its own separate entrance, a cathedral ceiling, impressive built-in shelving and a large Palladian window. Updated baths feature all-new fixtures and hardware plus a freshly tiled tub surround. Spend summers on the 14'x19' screened porch with a big-screen TV or just enjoying the views and breezes. Upstairs you'll find surprisingly large bedrooms. The master has two walk-in closets and the built-in storage on this floor is both charming and functional. The walk-up, floored attic is great for storage and offers an opportunity for a playroom, craft area, gym or office. It's not just a pretty face-updates were also done to electrical, heating, plumbing and water systems. **Professional photos coming Thursday evening.** A home cared for by every owner. About twenty years after it was built, it was purchased by one of the owners of Moodus Lumber & Coal and it's thought that he had a major role in originally building the house. He and his wife carefully updated it with only the best quality materials and workmanship, including custom Andersen Thermopane windows that tilt in for easy cleaning , enclosing the porch and the conversion of the doctor's office to the family room. The current owner has continued that tradition: they updated the kitchen in 2020, installed two new entry doors ($24k) with lifetime warranties in 2025, put new roof on porch, new gutters with gutter guards, recently painted the interior and exterior, as well as numerous other smaller projects. The full bath's original floor tiles remain in excellent condition. Solar panels, which produce more electricity than is used, were added in 2025. Details are included in the disclosures. Thinking about a master bedroom on the main floor? The 23'x18' family room would be a beautiful bedroom and has plenty of space to add a full bath and walk-in closet. A full bath in the upstairs master? One of the large walk-in closets shares a wall with the full bath and might be another opportunity for adding a full bath. With so many possibilities, the fourth owner will, no doubt, continue the tradition of making this beautiful home more loved.
