Have you heard about the Storrs Center that is being constructed on the corner of Storrs Road and Dog Lane?

Located  at the crossroads of the Town of Mansfield, Connecticut and the University of Connecticut, the Storrs Center will be a mixed-use town center and main street corridor featuring a combination of  retail, restaurant, and office uses with a variety of residence types including studios, town homes, condominium apartments and rental apartments.

All of us here at The Burns Real Estate Group offer our prayers, thanks, and honor to those who died, and a special thank you to those brave heroes that rushed into the World Trade Center Towers as everyone else tried to get out.

Thank you to those who have brave family members fighting the war that started that day.
Thank you to those who have come home safely, and a special thank you to the families of those that didn’t.

A day that will never be forgotten.
People that will always have special prayers in our hearts.

Thank you.

Until next time,
Elaine

Country store sign in Pomfret Ct

Only in New England would you find this sign!   Here is a country store located right on Rt 44 going through Pomfret Ct proudly displaying this sign for “Udderly Fantastic Meats.” This store is the real deal and has been there for as long as I can remember, creaky wood floors, old time display shelves and fantastic sandwiches and grinders…..you may notice the way groceries is spelled….grocries, hope it’s not short for gross groceries!

Tom and Elaine Burns Specialize in Ct Lake Property

Lakes are dotted throughout northeastern Ct and we are familiar with all of them, we have sold lake homes for many years and Woodstock Ct is one of our favorite Ct towns with some of THE most stunning homes and bucolic rolling hills to be found anywhere. The lake areas tend to have a real “New England” feel to them with pine trees and winding roads. Lake Bunggee is one of my favorites as well as it’s sister lake, Witches Woods. The two lakes are right next to each other with an earthen walkway and a dam separating them. Both lakes allow power boats and water skiing along with great kayaking, swimming, fishing, etc – all the amenities of lake life are here!

Some of the homes are very expensive and others are more rustic with a cottage feel to them, pretty much what you find on most lakes throughout Connecticut.  Here you will find this  fun and funky sign – it is on one of the roads on Lake Bunggee, maybe the beavers made it!  We love helping our clients find just the “right” lake property - believe me, sometimes it takes a while to find just the one they want.  We understand the process, we have owned lake homes for years and whenever a new property comes on the market we check it out because not only does each property have unique qualities, every lake has different qualities as well – it’s like going on a treasure hunt!
