In the heart of Downtown South Glastonbury, this turn-of-the-century property offers a unique blend of convenience and natural beauty. The main home features 4-5 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms and has been thoughtfully renovated in 2022 with a new roof, siding, windows and the addition of a front and side entry. Along with a beautifully updated kitchen with new appliances, hot water heater, renovated bathrooms, refinished floors, recessed lighting, new interior and exterior doors, trim work and fresh paint throughout. The property boasts an unbeatable location. With a two-minute walk to your local favorites such as Sayulita, SoG Coffee Roasters, Brookside Market, Nail and Hair Salons, a Bakery, Wine Store or the Post Office, all of your day-to-day necessities are easily met. Along with local Farm stands, Hops on the Hill Brewery, Glastonbury Marina, hiking trails at Cotton Hollow, the Connecticut River and Ferry, these all add to the experience of living in SoG Village. Back on the property, the backyard offers a tranquil escape that opens to a large private nature sanctuary with the sounds of over 300 ft of Roaring Brook water frontage running through that backs directly to acres of town-owned forest. A bird-watching paradise, as well as an ideal spot for fishing, as the Roaring Brook is stocked with trout every season. A massive 5,000 sq ft barn, rich in history, is fully equipped with water, sewer and electric on its own separate meter. It includes a 1-bedroom, 1-bath living area (included in total bedroom/bath count) and has served as a working art studio. With two levels, multiple access points, a 1200 sq ft Lean-to on the back, and even an EV charger, the barn offers exceptional flexibility-ideal for a guest suite, in-law setup, workshop or storage for boats, commercial vehicles, or a prized car collection. The barn has potential to be turned into a barndominium style home, a home business, such as a Bed & Breakfast, Small Wedding Venue, Yoga Retreat or be used for additional rental income. Additional features include a detached oversized 850 sq ft 3-car garage with electricity, heated by a pellet stove and metered separately via the barn-perfect for hobbyists or additional workspace. A truly one-of-a-kind property!
