    What's special

    Welcome to 55 Walnut Tree Hill Rd! This Colonial Farmhouse, nestled near the heart of Newtown and blends classic Connecticut charm with modern upgrades and conveniences. Though close to everything, the home offers a peaceful retreat, set back from the road on over 3 acres. As you travel the newly paved driveway, you'll pass a two-stall horse barn and paddock while upon approach of the home a dual-stacked front porch immediately draws you in with its welcoming charm. Inside, the updated main level features a chef's kitchen with expansive countertops, an eat-in dining area, and a butler's pantry equipped with a second stove, fridge, sink, and laundry room. The kitchen opens into a spacious living area with a beautiful stone fireplace-perfect for family gatherings or entertaining. Upstairs are four generously sized bedrooms, an office, and an oversized bonus room that runs the length of the garage. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a remodeled bathroom with a luxurious freestanding tub. The full finished walk-up attic space offers a desirable flex space perfect as a play room, office or den. The lower level provides ample space for a home gym, game room, or extra storage. Outside, new front and rear porches are perfect spots for entertaining or relaxing. Other highlights include a pristine two-car garage, hardwood floors and moldings/trim throughout much of the home, and a 3.5-year-old roof. Make 55 Walnut Tree Hill your home today!
