Welcome to this distinctive 4-bedroom, 3-1/2 bath Contemporary Colonial tucked into Pondview Estates, one of Cromwell's most desirable subdivisions of custom-built homes. Set on a fenced lot with mature landscaping and beautiful curb appeal, this home has great space, flexibility and smart updates. The main level has a desirable open floor plan with a spacious kitchen and family room flowing together. The family room is especially inviting with its vaulted ceiling, skylight, walls of windows and striking floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace. The remodeled kitchen offers warm wood cabinetry, newer appliances, generous Quartz counters and a large center work area, with easy access to the deck and backyard. A separate dining room and living room provide additional gathering space. Upstairs are 4 comfortable bedrooms, including a generously sized primary suite, 2 full baths and laundry. The finished walk-out lower level is fantastic with a large rec room, wet bar, and a potential 5th bedroom with a custom Murphy bed, cedar closet and a full bath. The practical features are just as impressive: Fully owned Solar PV Panels for electricity and a Solar Hot-Water System with indirect water heater and 2 storage tanks, providing an abundant supply of hot water while keeping energy costs down. All of this AND Central Air, a newer boiler, a 2-car garage with electric charging station, and generator hookups. A special home in a sought-after neighborhood you will be proud to call your own!
