Nestled on a beautiful one acre lot, this charming home blends comfort and convenience. This home has been cherished by the same family for over 44 years. The bright main level flows easily through the living spaces, while the expansive lower level becomes the heart of the home with its spacious family room with fireplace and beautiful built-ins, private office, and fun bar area. Three bedrooms offer peaceful retreats, and the property's wide, open yard invites outdoor play, gardening, or quiet evenings under the trees. A wonderful opportunity to enjoy space inside and out. Amazing location just steps to Waveny Park; leisurely walk to town; convenient to both the Merritt Parkway and train stations; and the most charming New England Village of New Canaan with top ranking schools, restaurants, and shopping.
