This is a jewel of a property--a seriously charming "English cottage"--unique in design, sturdy and well built, mixing old and new. The home is on a lushly landscaped private 3.57 acres within 3 minutes of UCONN. This meticulously maintained home sits well back from the road, almost invisible, on its own private knoll, with 2 driveway entrances on S. Eagleville Rd. The acreage includes a small pond in the back nestled in the trees, ideal for ice skating. There is a sport court with basketball hoop & back screen. The home itself is spacious and tasteful, with a magnificent newer 525 sq ft fam/entertainment room--featuring skylights, HW floors, & interesting windows. The glass enclosed 3 season porch with mahogany floor & heated paddle fan is a delightfully quiet, pleasant place to catch the morning sun. The "mud room" by the back entrance is anything but! It has a wall of custom storage, new 1/2 tiled bath, & a gorgeous view of the grounds. You'll also appreciate the HW floors, raised panel wood doors, arched doorways, glass door knobs, & beautiful woodwork.
