We are back after having a wonderful and busy summer. More on that shortly but in the meantime we are refreshed and excited for the fall market (wherever it may be). But 225 Middlesex Road came on and so here we go.

 

$1,295,000 ($1,225,000)with 4 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths, 2762 square feet and an additional 350 in the basement.  This home has a superb open floor plan with the living room flowing into the dining room/kitchen and then onto the fab family room.  This is a great house, ready to move into so take a look if you are in this popular price range. Offered by Deb Hidy at Kelly Associates.

I love the open floor plan…so great for entertaining.

1171388-830w553h

Have to love that wallpaper!

1171379-830w553h

The family room hits the market with the row of windows and built ins.

1171385-830w553h

1171461-830w553h

A large and serene master bedroom.

 

1171463-830w553h

There is nothing like a brand new basement playroom (as opposed to the dungeon my kids play in).

1171493-830w553h

Check out this backyard! Loads of room and very private.

 

We hope you had a great summer. Call us if you are ready to jump into the fall market.

Hello 2014!!! – UPDATE

Sunday, January 12, 2014

A new year is upon us and we hope, new listings as well.  It has been a rather dull Fall market but the holiday was busy for us with the launch of our listing at 327 Middlesex Road. There were also 2 other listings that came on, 223 West Avenue (listed for $879,000 with Linda Terhune) and 25 Raymond Street (listed for $839,000 with Kate Balanoff). ACCEPTED OFFER!  Heard there were multiple bids.  Is this a sign of what the Spring market will bring?

18685-1

25 Raymond Street has great curb appeal. You can also walk to Rowayton and have some lunch at our favorite Flea.

18685-7

This kitchen had us at hello. We loved the urban feel and those fabulous floors!!!

18685-6

The homeowner did a wonderful job renovating the kitchen and baths in this house.

18685-4

Bright space for having friends over.

18685-2

Another great spot. Wish the hide came with the house. This 3 bedroom house is bound to sell quickly.

18644-1

223 West Avenue also has great curb appeal. Any home with a front porch I love.

18644-11

This 4 bedroom house has high ceilings and spacious rooms.

18644-9

Renovated kitchen!!!One less thing to do when you move in.

18644-4

Another room to live in.

Pick of the week-Kitchen and Family Room

Saturday, December 7, 2013

Here is the continuation of our thoughts on decorating 207 Middlesex Road. Now that we have sold it we thought it would be fun to give the new owners some ideas from the Antique & Artisan Center.

THE KITCHEN at 207 Middlesex is light and clean.  There is a lot you can do with this space.

DSC_0121

WOW-love this table!

DSC_0120

DSC_0122

The color on these chairs is delicious.

DSC_0124

DSC_0062

I am not sure I would pair these with the table but if I found something else, these would be my pick for a chair.

DSC_0063

DSC_0156

You always need extra chairs and these beat the ones at Costco!

DSC_0157

DSC_0131

How fab is this.

DSC_0132

DSC_0101

These are more of an industrial look.

or have a bit of old world.

DSC_0110

Your kids will never be late for school (ok-I know it doesn’t work but how fabulous would this be int he kitchen).

DSC_0163

It is all in the details!

THE FAMILY ROOM is right off the kitchen and is a cozy spot. Here are some pieces that would be perfect.

This may not be for everyone but I love it!

What would we do to 207 Middlesex?

Monday, December 2, 2013

DSC_0038DSC_0038DSC_0038After only a few short days on the market, we have contracts signed at 207 Middlesex Road. We thought it would be fun to pull together some ideas on what we would do with this home so took a trip to  the Antique Center and this is what we found.

ENTRY HALL

207 Middlesex has a wonderful entry hall. The staircase wraps up to the second floor and is open all the way up.  It is flooded with light.  Here are a few thoughts on what would be a great fit.

DSC_0140

This would make the entry hall sparkle.

DSC_0105

This would be a touch of traditional in a more modern space.

DSC_0106

DSC_0087

I love this in the front hall.

DSC_0089

LOVE LOVE LOVE this pop of color.

LIVING ROOM

The living room is a cozy spot with french doors and a fireplace.   It would love some color.

DSC_0038

Put this on the long wall.

DSC_0038

DSC_0039

These mirror are fantastic.

DSC_0038

DSC_0044

DSC_0118

This sofa is so luscious your guest will stay all night.

DSC_0114

DSC_0034

Pink is always an unexpected winner.

DSC_0136

You can never go wrong with some skin.

DSC_0037

DSC_0141

This is not your run of the mill buddha.

DSC_0144

DSC_0082

Never give up an opportunity for some Draper.

DSC_0072

Not sure what I love more, the base or the shade.

DSC_0107

Here is another great light option.

DSC_0085

You cannot pass this up. Abigail has a set and they are unforgettable.

DSC_0099

A nice touch to round out the room.

DSC_0074

One last vignette….and a new twist on the starburst mirror.

DINING ROOM

The dining room at 207 Middlesex is large and elegant.  It has a large bay flooded with windows and light, tray ceiling and paneled walls.

DSC_0165

These chairs are perfect for the dining room.

DSC_0151

This piece lends itself so well in the wide open space.

DSC_0152

DSC_0154

DSC_0155

DSC_0079

and yes, a starburst is always a winner.

DSC_0081

DSC_0045

This is a showstopper and would be perfect in the spot.

DSC_0047

DSC_0159

and last but certainly not least, how is this for a twist.

DSC_0160

 

So what are your thoughts on how these pieces would work in this space? Let us know and come back tomorrow when we take a look at the kitchen and family room.


Middlesex Makeover

Sunday, March 10, 2013

IS-16x92qqx0c95p

Have you noticed lately what is going on all along Middlesex Road?  Home after new home has been popping up between Noroton Avenue and Leroy Avenue. Just recently a small red house was bought, and just like that, a gorgeous large home has taken its place. I sense another opportunity coming up at 327 Middlesex Road, just across from Leroy Avenue. Yes, someone can buy this cape and live happily ever after but a more realistic scenario is a builder buying it and putting up a $2mm+ home.

IS-r5s5oc0c6lb1

1 flat acre

327 Middlesex Road is listed at $849,000 through (who else) Amy Barsanti at Kelly Associates.  We all know that this is one of our favorite locations….close to the Middle and High School, and the center of town so it is a matter of time before this property is snatched up.
