Your private retreat awaits in one of Killingworth's most desirable areas. Set well back from the road on 4.2 secluded acres, this property offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and tranquility, with views of Murray Pond and abundant wildlife. This stylish split-level home features a distinctive design, highlighted by a hip roof over the two-story section and a complementary ranch-style main level. The upper level offers hardwood floors throughout, including all three bedrooms, along with a remodeled kitchen and updated full bath. The inviting living room is filled with natural light from a large bay window and warmed by a cozy wood-burning fireplace. Another large picture window in the dining room overlooks the patio and back yard. The lower level provides excellent flexibility, ideal for a potential in-law setup with a spacious family room, full bath, and a den or office that could easily serve as a bedroom. An oversized detached garage (24' x 28') with a matching hip roof offers plenty of room for vehicles, storage, or a workshop. Recent updates include a new roof (April 2026), new oil tank, new central air and an updated electrical panel that is generator-ready. Conveniently located less than a mile from the Killingworth Recreation Park-with ball fields, a playground, hiking trails, and disc golf-and just minutes to all schools in the highly regarded HK district. Ideal for commuters, with easy access to Route 9 for travel to the shoreline or Hartford area.
