    "near multile buslines on silas deane highway, built in pool, skating pond in winter, minute or so from 91, route 2 and 3; 10 minutess from 84. right off the highway but rural feel. trees line one side of the street. the street is wide so people tend to exceed the 30 mph; that's why i don't reccommend it for children. assigned parking.
