Spacious 4-bedroom house on riverfront; walk to delightful Washington, CT

Washington, Connecticut, United States

Charming, spacious 4BR, 1900 sqft riverfront home at end of dead-end road on 3 acres with a deep swimming hole, shady trees, orchard, & an expansive lawn. A peaceful 10-min walk (.5 miles) to Washington (inspiration for Stars Hollow!) and close to hiking, skiing, lakes, and more.brbrThis home is spacious, serene, and full of character—perfect for families. Upstairs, you’ll find a peaceful primary suite with a large master bedroom, an attached full bathroom, and a quiet study that can double as an extra bedroom. The study is exceptionally soundproof, providing a retreat for reading, working, or resting.brbrOn the main floor, the roomy living room features two cozy seating areas, shelves of books, musical instruments, and a TV with streaming. Just off the living room is a breezy sunporch overlooking a peach and apple orchard with another relaxing seating area and a dining area.brbrThis level also includes two charming bedrooms, a full bathroom, a warm and welcoming dining room, and a fully equipped kitchen. Downstairs, you'll find a mudroom/ laundry room, and an oversized three-car garage stocked with river innertubes, bikes, toys, sleds, and more.brbrThe grounds of the house are truly lovely, with extensive riverfront and a deep swimming hole, shady trees to relax under (or climb!), a peach and apple orchard, an expansive park-like lawn perfect for playing soccer, frisbee, or baseball, and a great hill for sledding! It is also far from a road, so kids can roam free.brbrThough it feels private, the house is an easy walk or bike (1/2 mile) to Washington Depot with a lovely bookstore, cafes, shops, galleries, farmer's market, and public tennis courts and playgrounds. It is one mile to the 1000-acre Steep Rock Preserve with endless hiking, biking, & cross-country ski trails. Lake Waramaug is 10 minutes away; and Mohawk Ski Mountain is a 30-minute drive.
