147 Evergreen Lane, Glastonbury, Ct 06033 Mls#:24205022

Welcome to 147 Evergreen Lane, a beautifully maintained Royal Barry Wills designed Dutch Colonial sitting on 1.36 idyllic acres in one of Glastonbury’s most desirable settings. A fieldstone retaining wall and bluestone steps lead you up to the front entrance, setting the tone before you even walk through the door. The front entrance itself is a statement, a rustic plank door with hand-forged iron strap hinges, flanked by antique-style lanterns that carry the theme through to the exterior. A charming Dutch door off the side entrance, complete with its own diamond-pane window and iron latch hardware, adds even more of that storybook New England feel. The details here are the kind you can’t recreate with new construction: hand-hewn exposed beams cross the ceilings in multiple rooms, paired with wide-plank pumpkin pine flooring that runs throughout much of the home. The eat-in kitchen is anchored by a brick fireplace with a hand-painted tile surround and wood mantel, one of three fireplaces in the home. Diamond-pane glass windows appear throughout, in the dormers, above the front entry, over the kitchen sink, and framing the dining area, filling the rooms with light while giving every space genuine period character. The recently updated eat-in kitchen pairs white cabinetry and dark countertops with those same exposed beams overhead, decorative cutout trim, and hand-painted tile accents, a kitchen that’s been modernized without losing the character around it. A separate home office, playroom, or den provides flexible space to suit your needs, and a dedicated dining room features custom built-in cabinetry with an arched display niche and classic wainscoting. A standout sunroom, wrapped in windows and warmed by its own wood stove, opens through French doors onto a bluestone patio and stone-walled garden beyond, the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation in every season. The walk-out basement adds even more versatility, featuring a 4th bedroom and 3rd full bathroom, along with a bar and potential for an in-law setup and kitchenette, ideal for multi-generational living, entertaining, or additional living space. Step outside to enjoy two separate patios spread across the property’s 1.36 acres, along with an underground irrigation system to keep the grounds lush with ease. This home has been impeccably maintained, with major systems and updates addressed well ahead of schedule: hot water heater (2023), a newer roof (2021, installed with ice and water shield), AC condenser (2021), furnace (2017), driveway (2019), newer storm windows, updated garage stairs (2026), and a chimney liner (2024) with water repellant applied and the crown resealed. Additional peace-of-mind features include a whole-house generator. 147 Evergreen Lane offers a rare combination of timeless character and modern updates, in a home that has clearly been loved and cared for.
