Wow! This meticulously cared for and updated colonial is perfectly sited, perched on a fenced-in corner lot overlooking protected open space and nature trails. The location is ideal, nestled on the corner of a coveted cul de sac, conveniently located within walking distance to shops & dining (sidewalks the whole way there!) and under 10 minutes' drive to Fairfield's beautiful beaches. The exterior has been lovingly maintained, and features beautiful garden beds, mature trees, stonescape & patio, and lush lawn - fenced in with arbors and gate. You'll know Spring is here at 552 Katona, because the melody of songbirds will fill the air. Truly a beautiful scene to call home! Inside find a warm and versatile floorplan, sparkling clean, flooded with natural light and thoughtfully updated. The kitchen is a chef's dream including Miele SS appliances featuring a Miele built-in coffee/espresso maker. Enjoy your coffee in the sunlit dining area with sliders to the patio. Plenty of counter, cabinet and storage. Serve guests in the formal dining room- just off the kitchen. Cozy up to the vaulted family room fireplace or the sophisticated (but not formal) living room with custom bookcases and custom bay window. Every over-sized window invites the outside in. Primary bedroom with en suite bath, 2 generous BRs and full hall bath complete the 2nd fl. AND don't miss the finished lower level with tons of options, wine closet, mudroom, access to 2-car garage. An amazing home, yard and area.
