Truly the embodiment of when a house becomes a HOME! Welcome to 230 Reservoir Rd, a charming oasis set on an idyllic 3+ acres in an ideal commuting locale. Back roads = best roads! Easy 30 minutes to New Haven and 20 to Middletown, or only 15 to Hammonasset and 20 to Old Saybrook on the Sound. But then again, it'll be hard to leave the gorgeous inground pool and seemingly endless, lush gardens! Truly a horticultural delight - whether it's admiring the myriad perennials, tending to the eggplant, cukes, peas, pumpkins, & more in the vegetable patch, or clipping herbs by the soothing koi pond. Inside, a versatile, airy floorplan beckons, anchored by two floor to ceiling gas fireplaces & walls of windows to take in the verdant views. Exceptional flow with a front to back living & dining area with bonus glass-enclosed heated sunroom - the perfect place for wildlife watching! The rustic kitchen features excellent storage, granite countertops, and S/S appliances, and opens to a wonderfully sized family room with slider to the deck and pool area. Upstairs, the primary has amazing closet space and an updated tiled ensuite. 2 more bedrooms share their own hall bath. Finished basement space is ideal for a den, gym, or guest space and has adjacent storage/tinkering space. 2 car garage, mini splits, and many updates throughout the years (see list!) on this meticulously maintained home. There is truly something for everybody - come fall in love!
