Pull up to the large driveway with parking for up to 5 cars. You enter the gate on the left side of the driveway to access the home behind the fencing. There is a large carport on the right side of the house that you can pull your car(s) under if you wish. There is a large rolling gate that you can push to the right to pull the car into the property. You access the house from the front door using the 4-digit code provided. You will enter the bottom foyer area, where I have wall hooks and an umbrella stand. There is also a small heater that helps keep the foyer warm in the winter months. We also offer a propane style stove with a remote. Take the stairs to the first floor, where you will find the main living areas. This floor offers soaring cathedral ceilings with a wrap-around floor plan including a living room, dining room, kitchen, pantry, laundry area, full bathroom with shower, and an office area. The living room and dining room offer soaring ceilings and amazing sun light through the windows and French doors off the living room and dining room. There is a brand new queen convertible sleeper sofa (1/6/26) that seats 3 comfortably, and 3 swivel-style chairs. The greeen chair is brand new (1/6/26) and swivels, glides, and offers electronic reclining function with a smart charging port. The home is controlled by a ductless AC system that also heats the house. There are 2 units on this floor. One in the living area, and one in the diningroom. I also have a ceiling fan in the living area. I offer a large smart TV and a Bose portable speaker for entertaining purposes.
There are 2 sets of French doors that take you to the back deck. The back deck offers a dining table for 6 with an umbrella, a grill, and lounge seating with a firepit and umbrella. The deck has a gate for safety. There are stairs off the back deck that lead to the back of the property, making it very convenient to access the private enclosed outdoor shower that offers both hot & cold water.
The kitchen is modern and is fully equipped for your entertaining needs. I have coffee and tea along with spices for your convenience. There is even a little treat for your fur babies. The large pantry offers plenty of storage space for your items. The laundry area is also located off the kitchen. I have a stackable GE washer and dryer and offer laundry supplies. There is also an iron and ironboard in the house. (located in the second floor king/twin conversion bedroom)
The second floor hosts the bedrooms and a full bathroom with tub/shower. The bedroom on the left is provided with a king bed, 2 night tables, a small chair, a full-length mirror, a TV, a dresser, a closet, a ceiling fan, and a sliding door to a small balcony.
The bedroom on the right can be offered as 2 twins or a king. There are 2 night tables with lamps, a small chair, a full-length mirror, a TV, a dresser, a closet, a ceiling fan, and a sliding door to a small balcony.
The chest of drawers on this floor holds your extra towels.
The full bathroom includes a double sink, large medicine cabinets, tub/shower, heater/fan, and toilet.

Kori is especially set up to provide your fur babies with a great stay! Having the convenience of the upper deck providing access to the fully fenced yard has allowed my pups the freedom to run and play around the entire property! They also love the number of beds I provide, and having permission to lounge on the sofa with the pet cover!
Stonington Borough is a great dog town! The neighborhood is fantastic to walk the pups! There is plenty of grassy areas, and the stores and restaurants are pet friendly! You can even take your pup with you to explore the Velvet Mill that's just a few blocks over the bridge from the house!
