Haven't found what you are looking for? Lucky you! Now you have the opportunity to own this marvelous property. This wonderful colonial has been the beloved gathering place for extended family over the years but awaits it's new owner. What a perfect opportunity to create value with some updates and begin making incredible memories of your own! The warmth of the fireplace, the coziness of the beamed ceiling, the gleaming wood floors; this home draws you in and envelopes you in comfort. Nestled on the back of the nearly half acre lot, ringed with trees, and directly on one of Arden's many tranquil paths, the home is surrounded by natural beauty and extensive plantings, invoking a feeling of rural escape, yet only a minute to the convenience of I95. Relax with a good book or dine alfresco on the side patio or relax on the deep covered front porch, no matter the weather! Both areas have been freshly power washed and the gardens mulched. Home includes a shed that has been outfitted as a cozy workshop. It has electricity and a pot belly stove - perfect for crafting or puttering in the cooler months. The former owner was an avid gardener, using the little greenhouse for starting plants and storage. With very little work, the new owner could easily bring the well nourished vegetable gardens back to life next Spring! Inside, the home features three bedrooms, two baths, a large dining room and a wonderful family room with bay window. The large eat in kitchen features beautiful wood cabinetry, a desk and access to the spacious mudroom, with separate entrance, and laundry. Plenty of storage and room for fixing those holiday dinners with ease! Sellers are including a one year home warranty for peace of mind. This home truly must be seen to be appreciated.
Arden is a unique community, with residents enjoying a robust community life - from the Arden Fair, Arden Guild, Arden Craft Shop and Museum, to the Candlelight Theater, - there is no other community like it in the state! From their website: "The Village of Arden was founded in 1900 as a Single Tax community based on the economic philosophy of Henry George, as well as the Arts and Crafts movement of William Morris and the Garden City movement of Ebenezer Howard. It is still noted for its arts, crafts, music, and theater. Half the land is forests and greens, which are not taxed. As a Tree City USA, our tree canopy is 73%. The Village is on the National Register of Historic Places." For more community information check out the Arden website.
