Welcome to your own waterfront escape on the Yantic River. This beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch offers the ease of one-level living, with peaceful river views tucked away in nature. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a center island with breakfast bar seating, opening seamlessly into the dining area and main living space. Sliding glass doors lead to a bright enclosed three-season porch overlooking the water, unwind to the sounds of the flowing river. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors, crown molding, updated windows, and a functional light and bright open layout. The walk-out lower level offers excellent flexibility with in-law potential, a private entrance, wood stove, office or storage space, and direct access to the backyard patio and riverfront. Enjoy established perennial gardens with hydrangeas, lily of the valley, backberry, raspberry and goldenberry bushes, rhubarb, and abundant wildlife surrounding the property. Fenced yard, storage shed built beneath the porch, and a one-car under-house garage. A rare opportunity to enjoy updated living with direct waterfront access, scenic views, and the calming atmosphere of the Yantic River right from your backyard. Showings start Saturday 5/16 12-2 pm at the Open House. Professional photography and 3D Matterport coming soon!
