A Private Emerald Paradise Originally an apple orchard, this home was thoughtfully built in the center of the expansive property to provide 360 degree view of trees and wildlife. Bordering wetlands, it is protected from further development. Architect-designed to embrace the natural habitat with soaring front to back windows which soak in the views. Craftsman millwork deftly defines each space with elegant rooms that are warm and comfortable. Sunrises fill the chef's kitchen - outfitted with top appliances and accented with grey granite and tile. The casual dining area is delightfully roomy and a favorite for informal get-togethers. The family room is warmed with a sizable fireplace and offers two seating areas, while the office easily accommodates two. A 2nd fireplace warms the living room and the dining room's china cabinets are a showpiece. Two staircases keep dirt in the mudroom. The landing area is an ideal space for homework. The primary suite boasts a gorgeous spa bath and his/her walk-ins, while all bedrooms are large with built-in closets. The lower level is perfect for a gym or media room. Outdoors, the expansive stone patio overlooks the forest in background and the lawn in the foreground, which is level for sports. A stone wall encircles much of the property and access to the blue trail is steps away. Walking distance to the Farmington Field Club and Hillstead Museum. Idyllically private, but an ideal location - just minutes from major highways/shopping/schools., Dunham Lane is a private Road that is maintained equally by the 4 owners on Dunham Lane. Covenants are included online for review.
