This is the kind of home that makes everyday life feel a little more fun. Set well back from a sidewalk-lined street in Rocky Hill, it is full of charm, style, and sophistication, beginning with the big covered front porch and tree swing out front. Then there's the backyard. A wonderful extension of the home, it features a heated pool wrapped in a handsome brick patio with plenty of room to lounge, gather, and stay outside far longer than planned. Inside, the layout is just as appealing. The sunken living room has a fireplace and a relaxed, inviting feel, while the beautifully updated kitchen serves as the heart of the home, filled with natural light and featuring doors that open directly to the pool. A first-floor room can easily flex as a home office or bedroom, depending on what life calls for, and there's a convenient powder room nearby. The family room adds even more personality with beautiful built-ins flanking a dry bar, creating an inviting space that's perfect for entertaining, relaxing, or gathering with friends. Upstairs, the primary suite has both a walk-in closet and double closet, along with its own private bathroom. Three additional nicely sized bedrooms share a hall bath. Downstairs, a spacious basement houses the laundry and offers endless possibilities for a home gym, recreation space, hobbies, projects, or storage. Lush plantings with specimen trees, generous parking, and a two-car garage complete the picture.
