About This Home
Welcome to 40 Echo Valley Road, a sprawling Colonial set on over two beautifully landscaped acres along one of Newtown's most scenic roads, lined with idyllic ponds, natural beaver habitats, and picturesque New England scenery. This spacious and exceptionally well-cared-for home offers huge sun-filled rooms, timeless character, and a peaceful park-like setting. The dramatic family room features vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and walls of windows overlooking the property. A 33-foot country kitchen showcases stainless steel appliances, exposed brick, beams, abundant dining space, and natural light throughout. Hardwood floors, multiple fireplaces, a sunroom with sliders, and a finished lower level add warmth and flexibility to the home's layout. Outdoor living is equally inviting with an oversized deck, patio, sprawling lawn, mature landscaping, and a hot tub creating a private retreat atmosphere. Additional highlights include central air, main-level laundry, and an attached two-car garage. Surrounded by Echo Valley's rolling landscape and tranquil wildlife settings while remaining convenient to town amenities, shopping, dining, and commuting routes, this is a rare opportunity to own a classic Connecticut Colonial in one of Newtown's most desirable locations.
