Perched above the beautiful Housatonic River, 28 Farview Drive is a deceivingly spacious ranch with MANY notable updates since 2017 and a stunning view. It's the perfect home for entertaining guests who can easily move into the open living and dining room area. With the nature preserve across the way, you can enjoy watching each season pass by from the large picture windows or relax on the upper deck to bird watch. Looking for a dream kitchen? This one shines bright with a cozy breakfast nook, an industrial island, as well as a pantry/coffee bar (2022). The generous sized bedrooms have hardwood floors and lots of sunlight. The basement has a full bath with a walk-in shower, laundry and two flex rooms for an office or gym. You're never short of natural light either as there are many large windows throughout the family room. Enjoy your morning coffee in any weather on the bottom deck (roof added 2022). Gorgeous stone steps lead into the backyard which was landscaped with grass and fenced in (2021). A newer roof was installed (2018) down to all new plywood. Have peace of mind knowing the septic is covered by separate insurance which, is transferable to the new owners; it will cover up to the full replacement. The newly expanded front porch (2023) allows easy access to the driveway or the front yard. A generator hookup was installed (2020). The living room has surround sound speakers (2023).

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
