About the Home

Set in a beloved Fairfield University neighborhood where turnover is rare, this classic Cape has been beautifully maintained, thoughtfully expanded & is sitting pretty on its 0.35 acre of level, partially fenced land, bordered by stone walls. Charming portico entry leads to Living Room with wood burning fireplace & Formal Dining Room. Newer En-Suite Primary Bedroom on main level is generously scaled, and includes two closets with custom built-ins. The Bathroom features large walk in shower with bench seat, and is wheelchair accessible. Eat In Kitchen w/table at sunny bay window opens to surprisingly spacious Newer Family Room with custom built ins, overlooking private backyard via an expansive Trex deck. Full hall Bathroom w/tub completes the main level. Upstairs are two sweet dormered Bedrooms w/window seats and 3rd full hall Bathroom w/tub. Basement offers 2 finished rooms for additional living space & plenty of unfinished space for laundry & storage. Attached 1-car garage leads into kitchen. University Drive is part of an enclave of quiet streets adjacent to Tanaka Park, a neighborhood built for GE executives in the 1930's. This wonderful home, fresh & inviting as it is today, is suitable for even more expansion. Just 2.5 miles to Fairfield town center, with its cultural amenities, conveniences, restaurants & MetroNorth train station, and another mile from there to sandy Penfield Beach. It's a perfect mix of move-in condition, convenient location & beautiful setting.
