This wonderfully well-maintained Garrison-style Colonial home sits tucked away at the end of Squire Lane, offering the best of both worlds... a private setting, while only minutes to the many amenities of Essex, Old Saybrook and Old Lyme. The gourmet kitchen is well appointed with professional appliances and a center island, eat-in space, and opens to an expansive family room. The adjoining sunroom is drenched in natural light, with sliders to a beautiful stone terrace and sweeping fenced and professionally landscaped backyard. Four bedrooms and three and a half baths allow for comfortable living. The second level is highlighted by a primary suite featuring bonus space for a home office, library or sitting room. The spacious primary bath, with a jacuzzi tub and lovely tiled separate shower, beckons relaxation and rejuvenation. Three additional bedrooms, one with its own full bath, as well as another full bath, all complete the upper level of the home. Not to be missed is the fully finished walkout lower level, adding enough living space for movie nights, ping pong, and an exercise room. Essex is easily accessible via I95 and Amtrak, and this special property truly enjoys the best of shoreline living.
