Property Description
21 Chapel Drive greets you with an expansive front porch, perfectly positioned to capture the cooling breezes of Long Island Sound at the end of the street. This warm and inviting home is bathed in exceptional natural light throughout the day. Inside, the formal living and dining rooms flow seamlessly, setting the stage for elegant entertaining anchored by an expansive fireplace. The heart of the home is the kitchen where large windows frame picturesque views of the historic Pine Orchard Chapel. The open concept kitchen welcomes everyone to come and stay for a while. There is plenty of counter and storage space and there are two cooking areas: a gas stove and an electric cooktop. It is adjacent to the family room with its pretty built in China cabinet and private office overlooking the rear deck, complete with a pergola and a quiet landscaped yard and one car oversize detached garage. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a peaceful sanctuary featuring a versatile nook - ideal for a nursery or perhaps a yoga studio. The ensuite bath features a jetted tub & bidet. Across the hall is a bedroom that mirrors the primary with a nook as well. In between these bedrooms is a flex room that can be used as an office, tv room, or for guests. There is also another bedroom, and a sitting room with a cedar closet could be used as a 4th bedroom on the along with a full bath. There is a lot of flexibility and options for sleeping arrangements when guests come. This coastal Craftsman style home is more than just a home; it is an invitation to a slower pace of life in the heart of Pine Orchard, an historic water area community. The lifestyle here extends beyond the front door. Imagine going for a morning walk along the Shoreline Greenway Trail, or instead of a stroll around the neighborhood, taking your dog to the Young's Pond Dog Park. For the active lifestyle, Pine Orchard Yacht & Country Club is moments away, providing golf, tennis, boating and swimming. Come see what it means to live a life well-lived by the water.
