This modernized Cape Cod is located in the picturesque New England village of Moodus, nestled along the CT River in East Haddam. This home has been well loved and updated in some way by nearly every owner since it was originally built in 1781, yet retains its original charm and warmth. Entering from the covered side porch you will be welcomed by original exposed beams and new hardwood floors. Moving into the eat-in kitchen, new granite countertops and marble tile backsplash bring this antique home right into the 22nd century. The living room offers a large picture window, skylight, and access to the covered porch and back deck. Rounding out the first floor are a full bathroom and spacious dining room also featuring original exposed beams. Upstairs you will find two charming bedrooms and a half bath. The main bedroom is light and airy and offers a large closet with ample storage space. Situated on nearly an acre of land, the level yard offers a private deck and plenty of room for outdoor activities or entertainment, including your own chicken coop with room to expand! Once advertised as the "Twine Capital of America", historic Moodus Town Center is just steps away where residents and visitors alike can enjoy retail shops and restaurants. Also located nearby are two of the area's most well known attractions, The Goodspeed Opera house and Gelston House Restaurant where theater goers can enjoy a show and a meal along the banks of the historic CT River. As well as Gilette's Castle State Park where one can tour the castle while enjoying scenic river vistas, hiking trails, and access to the CT River. Hop aboard the Chester-Hadlyme ferry and cross to river to enjoy a ride on the Essex Steam Train and Museum.
