Property Description
The Otnes House is a true floating oasis and now available as a summer rental! This rolling property overlooks nearly 3.5 acres, complete with a one-of-a-kind pool carved into a natural stone quarry with beautiful surrounding gardens. John Johansen of the celebrated Harvard Five designed this mid-century modern for famous collage artist Fred Otnes, who lived here for over 50 years. Walls of glass bring in beautiful natural light; expansive decks & pergolas have created an open floor plan concept to bring the outside in. The renovated kitchen features Bauformat cabinetry and high end European appliances, and the primary bedroom has a sitting room, office area and attached artist studio. Two additional bedrooms and two bathrooms complete the main house, and adjacent to the home is a two-car garage with ample room for storage or an additional studio space. The property is approximately 50 miles/90min from New York City and 5 minutes to a Metro-North stop which takes you directly to Grand Central. Redding offers an abundance of trails, nearby shops and restaurants of Westport, Darien and Ridgefield. A wonderful place to call home.
