15 Newtown Turnpike Redding, CT 06896

Right across from the Saugatuck Reservoir, enter through stone pillars to the first house over the Weston line. This sanctuary setting abuts 9 acres of the Redding Land Trust, a total of 2000 acres of hiking trails, open space, peaceful woodlands, splashing streams and sweeping vistas across open meadows. Totally re-built in 2002, this 5-bedroom, 5000+ sq. ft. home has a perfect layout for modern living. The Primary suite with its own staircase has 2 bathrooms, a large dressing room and a balcony with French doors overlooking the pool (new in 2015) and miles of scenic protected space. Four additional spacious bedrooms, 2 large bathrooms, laundry room and walk-up attic complete the 2nd floor. The main level has a large, living room with beautiful year-round views of the back yard and into the land trust. Two private offices (or den/library) are to one side of the living room and you can also enter the formal dining room with fireplace. The open kitchen and family room with a large stone fireplace are also oriented toward the patio and back yard views of nature. This idyllic property is only 64 miles to NYC and makes for a spectacular weekend home but the chances are, once you're here, you won't want to leave!
