If you've been searching for true country living, privacy, and land for exploration, this 17-acre property in Eastford delivers all of it. With Bigelow Brook (a Class A trout brook), running through the acreage and the Natchaug Blue Blaze Trail crossing the land, this is a dream setting for outdoor enthusiasts, nature lovers, and anyone seeking a peaceful retreat. The location places you near Natchaug State Forest, Ashford Lake, and between Buell's and Crooks orchards. The Cape Cod home is set back from the road, giving the ultimate sense of privacy. Inside, the large eat-in kitchen features a large moveable island, pantry closet, updated quartz countertops, luxury vinyl flooring, induction stove, newer refrigerator, and an elegant wood hood. Just off the kitchen is a flexible first floor bedroom or home office with double closets and stunning cherry wood floors milled from trees harvested on the property. The living and dining rooms continue the cherry flooring and offer a warm gathering space with a woodstove for alternative heating. A French door leads to the back deck with a ramp from the driveway, and overlooking the backyard and peaceful tree line. A full bath with tub/shower completes the main level. Upstairs are two bedrooms, a full bath, and a walk-in hallway closet. The larger bedroom includes a Jotul woodstove for additional heating, and both rooms feature skylights that fill the space with natural light. The walkout lower level provides unfinished space for laundry, mechanicals, storage, and access to the 2-car garage with newer doors. Additional property features include a Generac standby generator, new oil tank, hoop greenhouse, woodshed, and owned solar panels for energy savings. A major asset of this property is the detached barn with a metal roof, power, two sets of double doors, and a loft. Previously used for a home nursery business, this versatile structure offers endless potential for hobbies, equipment storage, or future ventures. For buyers seeking even more land or multi parcel opportunities, the neighboring approved building lot of 10.51 acres is also available for purchase. A truly special property offering land, lifestyle, and the freedom to enjoy the outdoors right at home.
