*PRICE REDUCED* This awesome home is looking for just the right buyer! Outside Milford city limits is this seemingly-secluded, custom cape cod built in 1996. Sitting on an acre surrounded by trees and only 0.2 miles away from Griffith Lake access ramp, you will feel very at home and still be so close to all amenities and events that Downtown Milford has to offer! Pull around the circular driveway and head on up to the door. As you step up on the front porch (complete with swing), before going inside, turn around and you’ll notice a partial view of Griffith Lake, which is especially beautiful during sunsets. This home boasts an eat-in kitchen with bay window, large island, plenty of cabinets, and a pantry. The generously-sized primary bedroom with en suite is on the first floor, as are 2 other bedrooms, another full bathroom, half bathroom, and laundry room (complete with cabinets and storage), and a front room that can be used as dining or an office. There is also an attached sunroom (with temp control) and a living room with gas fireplace and high ceilings. There are TWO ways to get upstairs, which was finished off in 2009. The traditional way is from the interior staircase near the bedrooms. The other way is a thoughtful detail - directly from the garage, so if you have guests staying upstairs, they do not have to drag their luggage through the house! Upstairs are 2 bedrooms, a full bathroom, and an open area with storage and built-in shelves that can be used as an office or even a child’s play area. Dormer benches can be used as storage, and there are attic access doors for additional storage. As if that wasn’t enough, there is an unfinished basement with workbench, bar area, outside stair access, and crawl space access. Care has been taken to keep the basement dry – there are 2 sump pumps, dehumidifiers, a pressure relief system (with transferable warranty), and termite control. Out back is a deck attached to the house, a small patio for grilling, then the above ground pool with deck, liner, pool steps, and some furniture that can be left behind, plus a shed. Other notable items: roof replaced (2019), Leaf Filter gutter guards added (2019), whole house generator installed (2020), 2 HVAC zones (one heat pump new in 2023 and the other is 2010), AND an outdoor shower. This home has a ton of potential for you to put your own twist on it, so schedule your private showing today!
