Property details
About 36-1 Sterling City Rd
All that Lyme has to offer is right outside your windows. This home is magnificently sighted on a hillside overlooking Tiffany Farms, with glimpses of Hamburg Cove in the distance, and the woodland hills of Sterling City. Bordered by the Plimpton Preserve, this home has the privacy you may desire, yet is walking distance to Hamburg Cove, the seasonal Lyme Farmers Market, and Music & Culture events at the Lyme Public Hall. Hamburg Cove features marinas for larger boats and Lyme has many spots to paddle. The views from this home are breathtaking and with the careful attention to window placement, the views follow you in every room. The first floor features an open plan with a cathedral ceiling in the Living Room, open to the dining room. A slider opens to a deck area that wraps around to the side yard. There is a gas fireplace to create a cozy ambiance. The kitchen has double sliding doors to open it up to the dining area. There is a bedroom option on this main level and the primary bedroom is on the 2nd level. Lots of flexibility with this floor plan, currently there is an additional bedroom and a loft used as an office on the 2nd level, but all this could be an expansive private primary suite if needed. On the lower level there is a drive-under garage with room for two cars, and a spacious unfinished room that is just waiting for your ideas to finish it out. The yard has been kept in a woodland style with flowering shrubs and native plantings, accented with rock outcroppings.
