About This Home

As of September 2020

In a neighborhood of even more expensive homes, this last home built on Woodcock Ridge is architecturally interesting from the creatively lined roof to the quality finishing touches and bordered on 2 sides by open space and a tributary of the Silvermine River. Let nature take you away on the walking trails accessed right across the street to access the Woodcock Nature Center. Exquisite attention to detail with extensive moldings, walnut inlaid hardwood floors, pillars, 3 fireplaces, stone walls, granite & bluestone entry steps. Main level office with cherry floors, powder room w/bronze sconces & Japanese woven grass wall covering, living room w/Breccia Nouvelle marble fireplace, high-end kitchen with solid maple cabinets, granite and GE Monogram appliances. Kitchen is open to family room with granite stone fireplace and bluestone mantle. Amazing master suite with jacuzzi, stall shower and granite countertops. Almost 700sqft in walk-out lower level with full bath and fireplace. The lower level was designed with a 5th bedroom in mind (only the wall between the bedroom and living area was not added) and has lots of light and a separate entrance so is perfect for an in-law area or au pair. Walk-up attic is easy to finish for an additional approximately 1200 square feet! Fruit-bearing specimen plantings. Ideal southern Ridgefield location. Perfect opportunity to have multiple home offices with main level office, finished lower level and ability to finish the attic.
