Historic Charm Meets Modern Living on 5 Acres in Killingworth, CT Step into timeless elegance with this meticuously restored 1780 colonial nestled on five private acres, surrounded by protected water company land that ensures lasting privacy and natural beauty. Fully renovated in 2015, this home seamlessly blends original character with modern upgrades-including preserved wide-plank hardwood flooring, a stunning updated kitchen with gas appliances, butcher block countertops, and a built-in wine cooler. Open counter space, with a center double sink island that doubles as a hightop breakfast bar. With three spacious bedrooms and two renovated full baths, the home also features a main-level laundry room, wood stove inserts for cozy winter nights, and a sprawling deck overlooking the pond and rolling landscape. Two rooms located on the main level gives opportunity for an office or guest area. A charming barn with kerosene heat and a wood stove on top offers endless potential-convert it into an in-law suite, studio, or workshop. Peaceful, private, and full of New England character-this one-of-a-kind home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history with all the comforts of today.
