Welcome to modern, move-in ready living in this meticulously maintained 2016-built home, ideally situated on a quiet cul-de-sac on nearly 2 acres in Salem-within the highly desirable East Lyme public high school district. Designed with both everyday comfort and flexibility in mind, the main level features hardwood flooring and a stunning living room with soaring vaulted ceilings and a stone fireplace, creating a bright, open space perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The eat-in kitchen is centered around a large island with electrical outlets, generous counter space, and ample room for seating, flowing seamlessly into the dining area. A dedicated main-level flex room offers endless possibilities for a home office, sitting room, or playroom, along with a convenient half bath and separate laundry room. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a spacious en suite bathroom with a soaking tub and separate shower. Additional bedrooms are well-sized, including an expansive room above the three-car garage-ideal for guests, extended living space, or a private retreat. The partially finished lower level with direct garage access provides even more flexibility for recreation, workspace, storage, or potential multi-generational living. Outdoor living is just as inviting, featuring a screened-in porch with ceiling fan, a concrete patio with hot tub, and a beautifully maintained yard enhanced by an irrigation system and storage shed.
