Tucked away on 3.75 private acres in Salem, this 3BR/3BA colonial is far more than it appears. A 2023 storm-resistant metal roof (50-yr transferable warranty), 2024 SunPower solar (leased, transferable, ~95% electricity offset), and generator-ready wiring mean the big-ticket items are done. Inside, a seamlessly integrated Home Assistant smart home system controls automated lighting, outlets, and security - including WLED accent lighting on the dining room bay window, living room crown molding, stairwell, and pantry. The 25x13 den anchors the main floor with a wood stove and slider to the outdoors. Upstairs, the primary suite features a whirlpool tub and double closets. Outside, the property delivers: a pergola, covered garden, ~1/4 acre field ready for planting, woodland walking trails, and an impressive collection of native and domesticated fruit and nut trees and bushes. A 50-amp garage outlet serves EV charging or welding. Wired Arlo doorbell camera included. Minutes to Gardner Lake, parks, and local amenities. 27 min to Subase New London.
