Welcome to 9 Hickory Hill Drive! Set high on a hill in the heart of the charming Connecticut River Village of Chester. This striking Contemporary offers over 2800 sqft. of light-filled living space on 1.23 private acres-just a 3/10 mi stroll to Main St. The inviting foyer opens to a stunning, sun-drenched living area with skylights and gleaming hardwood floors throughout the living room, dining room, kitchen, library, and family room. The thoughtfully designed layout creates an easy flow for both daily living and entertaining. Also on the main level are two bedrooms-one currently serving as an artist's studio with a spacious adjacent walk-in storage room. Upstairs, an open loft-style office/media area overlooks the living space below and leads to the serene primary suite. An additional exercise or media room completes the upper level. Recent updates include several new windows, skylight, doors, flooring, and beautifully renovated kitchen featuring dramatic quartzite "Blue Explosion" counters, red maple floors, a bar with wine cooler, and newly updated bath. Enjoy peaceful, elevated views from the expansive deck overlooking the private, wooded backyard. The property also includes a two-car under-house garage plus a heated detached one-car garage/workshop-perfect for hobbyists & collectors. Ask to see the full list of improvements. Ideally located midway between New York City & Boston, you'll love the vibrant arts scene, fine dining, and welcoming spirit of historic Chester!
