About This Home

Welcome to 51 Chipmunk Trail, a charming Sandy Hook ranch nestled on a quiet, private road surrounded by mature landscaping and natural beauty. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a freshly updated interior, this home is move-in ready and full of character. The main level offers a bright, open feel with hardwood floors throughout, a comfortable living room, separate dining area, and a refreshed kitchen featuring white cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless appliances. Newer split units provide efficient heating and cooling year-round. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a private full bath and its own deck, the perfect spot to start your morning. Two additional bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the upper level. The finished lower level adds valuable bonus space, anchored by a cozy wood burning stove, perfect for a rec room, home office, or hangout space. Step outside to a large deck overlooking a private, wooded backyard, ideal for entertaining or simply unwinding. A shed adds extra storage, and the mature landscaping gives this property standout curb appeal from the moment you arrive. Tucked away yet close to everything Sandy Hook has to offer, this one is a must-see.
