Marvin Beach Community's newest home and best value!
This 1925 colonial is only seconds from the water, located in Marvin Beach Community. This community is a tight-knit group of neighbors with access to a private beach, and neighborhood events throughout the year which makes it feel like it belongs in the 1920's (in all the best ways). This location is also walk to the beach, and bike to the East Norwalk train. I-95 is around the corner, as well as the Westport Train. The restaurants, parks, schools are all seconds away by car!
The owners of this home have meticulously updated all the spaces. The beach outside opens into the beach inside at this beautiful home. It begins with a brand new front porch, perfect for enjoying summer evenings and the cool breeze of the water which is only a minute from the front door. This leads into a large living room that is now open into the dining room. The living room has beautiful hardwood floors and a large, white-washed fireplace at its center. There is a small sunroom right off the living room, perfect for a day bed or an office. Each space has so many windows, creating an open and airy feeling that is bright and spacious.
Toward the back of the home is the kitchen, reconfigured for this buyer's purposes.
The kitchen is the star, updated completely. With white cabinets, light granite counters with hints of blue, it fits well with this sea-themed home. There are stainless steel appliances, modern lighting, and at the center of the kitchen is a large island with breakfast bar. There is a large pantry and built-in wine rack and cabinets. The owners also managed to build a large, brand new full bathroom with vaulted ceilings and beautiful tile work. This bathroom is thoughtfully designed to today's buyer's wants and needs!
The beach feel of this home continues out the back French Doors, into the back yard. There is a large flagstone patio, with small but private garden and yard area. There is an outside shower, perfect for his beach-front community. The 1 car garage has been updated as well, perfect for storage, or to park your car.
Upstairs, the hardwood floors continue into all three bedrooms, maintaining that lovely consistency. The three bedrooms are all about the same, modest size--making them bigger than most of the bedrooms for homes in this neighborhood. One of the three bedrooms has a staircase into the attic, great for storage but being used by the owner as an office. The full bath on this level is incredibly bright and newly updated. It has two large windows, and a linen closet.
The basement is through the hallway downstairs, and has lots of great storage and space, as well as the brand new laundry. There is a bonus storage room here as well. The basement houses the new tankless water heater, and one of the three air handlers, an almost-40k heating and cooling system for a new buyer.
All the wants and needs for a buyer, in a home that is well-thought out. In a desirable waterfront community, 5 Alden has the bedrooms, the space, and the updates that are perfect for any buyer!
