On the Market: 11-room Easton Colonial close to farms
EASTON - Stress has become an unfortunate part of our day-to-day as the worldwide pandemic continues. All the more reason to consider purchasing the sunny yellow colonial house at 97 Tranquility Drive in Easton.

The yellow colonial house at 97 Tranquility Drive in Easton features 4,232 square feet of living and entertaining space.
Although the color of the house is a muted yellow, the hue is said to represent freshness, happiness, positivity, clarity, energy, and optimism, according to several websites. Couple that with the fact that this house sits on Tranquility Drive and there has to be some level of calm that comes over its owners.

In the formal living room there is a fireplace with a decorative mantel, dentil crown molding, and arched transoms above the windows.
This house sits on a level and gently sloping property of just over three acres in a part of Easton north of Westport Road (Route 136); in a very rural part of the town yet still convenient to the nearby towns of Westport, Weston, Fairfield and Monroe. It is also very convenient to several local farms and Gold Rush Farms for those who enjoy horseback riding or need a place to board their own horse.

In the formal dining room there is dentil crown molding, chair railing, and French doors separating it from kitchen.
In the peaceful and private backyard there is a stone patio with a stone sitting wall; the perfect place for dining al fresco, relaxing and birdwatching. This house is set well back from the road down a long gravel circular driveway that features ample parking for family and friends. This property and the house, which features 4,232 square feet and 11 rooms, is ideal for today’s living and entertaining styles.

The spacious gourmet eat-in kitchen features a center island, ample granite counters, custom cabinets, a built-in wine rack, a large pantry, and high-end appliances.
The front door is flanked by decorative leaded glass sidelights and it opens into a sizable two-story foyer, where there are fluted pilasters at the wide entrance into the formal living room, a ceramic tile floor, and decorative wood appliques on the stringer below the treads of each step on the staircase to the second floor. The house was built in 1998 in such a way that the main level offers a flexible floor plan.

The breakfast nook has a bay window, transoms and sliding doors to the patio and backyard.
