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.
