About This Home

As of September 2020

First time on the market in 33 years, this ca 1786 West Redding historic residence is thought to be one of the original farmhouses for the notable Sanford family, one of the oldest names in Redding. For the past several decades, this has been the beloved home of the late Marion Grebow Olsen, renowned artist & sculptor. Since the late 1980s, Marion was extensively commissioned for her hand painted & sculpted ceramic tiles for fine homes in CT, Westchester & NYC, as evidenced by the custom ceramic tile work throughout the home's kitchen & baths. During the time she lived there, 2 additions were cstm designed by her son, noted architect Samuel Olsen, to enhance both her living & work environments, including the 3 story MBR, DR & lower level workshop addition, as well as the 1,280 sf separate barn/studio. The main homestead offers 3,334 sf of finished living space including 4 BR, 3 full baths, & 558 in the lower walk-out studio; walk-up attic; updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances; plus most luxurious MBR suite with sitting room, vltd ceiling, & elegant private bath. The detached 2 story studio/barn offers unlimited possibility for artists or home office featuring cathedral ceilings, half bath, polished concrete floors, skylights, 1 car garage, & propane generator. Most pastoral 3.08 acres with native farm walls, orchards, herb garden, vegetable garden, grape arbor, & passive irrigation. Top West Redding location, convenient to train & approximately 70 miles to Midtown.
