$$ Give back after closing for buyer to complete in-law over garage. From Original Listing... Very secluded and private property of 5.3 acres on a 45 degree slope in the remote corner of Fairfield County. Surrounded by hundreds of acres of nature preserved as unbuildable land. It abuts the Monroe Discovery Nature trails. Mainstreet and Shops in Monroe, Shelton and Newtown are just a few miles away. Access to all major routes, 25, 15, 84, 34 are just minutes away. The main house is a Westchester Modular colonial erected in October 1999. In 2004 construction of an oversized 3-1/2 car garage with a 900+sqft in-law apartment was framed with a full-size bath. All electrical and plumbing was completed. This space remains unfinished for the buyer to complete to their personal desire. The House and garage are connected by a an enclosed 37' x12' breezeway that is heated with tiled floor, lighting 3 sliders and skylights to serve as a bright location for plants or just as a sitting or breakfast nook. The front of the breezeway has access to a full-length sitting deck. Below the breezeway is a 4' high storage area with natural light from the front. Access from the breezeway down through an exterior door into the finished side of the basement. The basement was an extra deep pour at construction so that the finished drop ceiling is almost 8' high. a small 12'x12' space was erected for in in-home office. The house has well water. All water service both in and outside is provided by a high-end Grundfos pump which was replaced 4 years ago. There is a 3-stage water filtration system in the basement that provides fresh filtered spring water throughout all fixtures both inside and out. The house is divided basically in 12' increments. The layout is 36' x 24' so most rooms will have a 12' dimension. The second floor has three full-size bedrooms. The 4th bedrooms was a smaller room with a full closet added in the modular planning to close of what was to be an open foyer to the 2nd floor. There is a common full bath with tub and shower in the upper hallway. The master bedroom has it's own bathroom with shower stall and walk-in closet. From the upstairs hallway you can enter the walkup attic which is completely open from end to end for storage or finishing if desired. Tongue and groove sheets of plywood are stored in the attic since construction in the event there was ever a desire to cover all rafters. Downstairs has a laundry area that allows access to a full bath with a large shower stall. The kitchen is an open concept with an area for a breakfast table if desirable. There is a full slider out to a large back deck. Off the kitchen is a 12' x 12' dining room open to a 12' x 9' entry way with stairs to 2nd floor. Both the kitchen and front entry open into a 12' x 18' Living space with room for 2 full couches on adjacent walls in front of a recently replaced fireplace box unit surrounded by a beautiful outdoor mural painted by a local artist. The first floor has 9' ceilings with display shelving running in both kitchen and living room. All rooms have large farmhouse style duel pane sash windows which floods all rooms in the house with natural lighting. 3/4" Oak flooring runs through every room of the house with the exception of bathrooms. The house sits elevated about the back country road of Monroe, and is approximately 200' from the street. A peaceful reminder of nature is viewed from every window in the house. The property provides an easement to a a residence that sits some 600' from the road. The easement is at a lower elevation from the main house so it does not interfere with privacy. Along the easement is an electrified detached garage structure with swinging barn doors that offers storage for yard equipment or ATVs. It also serves as a great workshop for home projects. The property is bisected by a small stream and Wetlands restrictions. Currently we are under approved permitting to possibly add a 2-3 car steel structure along the east most property line off East Village Road on the east side of the stream. Road access has recently been completed to access that portion of the property. In addition, zoning was changed to 1-acre and there is the potential of constructing a stand alone cottage on the northwest corner of the property. The natural growth on the wooded area hides an exiting tractor path that would serve as a perfect driveway to that corner.

This property is in a part of Monroe that is Residential, Farm and Business zoned. So the privacy, open space, potential office over garage, additional storage garage below and the potential of 2-3 more storage bays make this a great location for a owner /operator business residence.
