Whiteside's original Tudor home is visible in the distance where the Sellers of Lot #1 will remain in residence on Lot #2. LOT 1 FOR SALE is flat, pristine, dry and park-like, and enclosed by 1920's fieldstone drywalls which run a full 450' along Sylvan Road North frontage. The Town-Approved Site Plan (FOR DESIGN DEVELOPMENT NOT CONSTRUCTION) is being "simplified" by LandTech to clarify: (1)House site can be moved (2)Sewer and City Water available at street for connection. (3)Natural Gas is available across street, so is being explored as a possibility. Seller has requested feedback from Southern CT Gas about possible hookup to an existing natural gas line across street at 43 Sylvan North/Marion Rd. Still awaiting response from the SCG field manager. (4) utility lines to Lot #2 will logically be moved from the middle of Lot #1 to run alongside the Lot#2 driveway. (5) an optional private and separate Lot#1 entry farther
