57 Ridge Road Middletown, CT 06457

Welcome to 57 Ridge Road, where nearly 150 years of New England character meet a home that has been quietly and completely modernized - so all that is left to do is move in. Built in 1879, it carries the warmth of its era without the headaches that usually come with a house its age. The big work is done: all-new windows, 200-amp electrical, and an efficient natural-gas heating and hot-water system, plus a high-output pellet stove that warms the whole home on the coldest Connecticut nights. Inside, hardwood floors and bright, flexible rooms invite you to make the space your own - a home office, a guest room, whatever the season of life calls for. The updated kitchen, with added cabinetry and warm under-cabinet lighting, makes weeknight dinners and weekend entertaining effortless. Outside, a private, fully fenced backyard offers room for morning coffee and summer grilling, while a two-car garage and floored walk-up attic keep everything in its place. Set in Middletown's established South Farms neighborhood, with quick Route 9 access and minutes from Main Street's restaurants, shops, and culture - plus Middlesex Health and the Connecticut River close at hand. A rare turnkey opportunity to enjoy classic character and modern comfort without lifting a hammer.
