Property Description
First time on the market in over 40 years, this quintessential Connecticut country home is sited on almost 5 level acres with pool, guest cottage, and original working dairy barns. The main house was built in 1870 and has been thoughtfully renovated and updated by the current owners. The first floor features a warm and inviting living room with fireplace, private office, large dining room, sunroom, and updated chef's kitchen. An addition was added in 2016 creating a new family room with gas fireplace and French doors to an outdoor terrace, a spacious mudroom, and an attached 2 car garage with pulldown storage above. The second floor offers three bedrooms and three full baths, a spacious primary suite with an updated bathroom and walk-in closet, and two additional bedrooms with updated baths (one ensuite). The third floor has a 4th bedroom with full bath. The land is simply stunning with lush mature landscaping, flowering gardens, pool, guest cottage, and fantastic original barns. Property is located on coveted West Rd and minutes to town and train. Only once in a generation is such a beloved and treasured home passed on to a new owner who will carry on its rich history and legacy. Seize the opportunity to make this special property your own!
