About This Home

As of March 2019

ARTIST PARADISE. Nestled in “Pleasant Valley” in the Town of Lyme, with a cold trout stream flowing through the property, this charming house has much that will delight. Sun-filled rooms, formerly the studio of an American impressionist artist, Oscar Fehrer, overlook a meadow, pond, Beaver Brook and surrounding wildlife area. Additions to the house contain a first-floor bedroom and bath, an eat-in kitchen and laundry/mud room. The second floor, on either side of the vaulted Living Room/Great Room, are a second bedroom and bath and an office/library with a window seat for quiet reads. A separate two-car garage has an added studio overlooking the pond and brook. Large specimen trees, including Maple, Apple and various Evergreens, surround the house and grace the sweeping front meadow. On the south side of the house, overlooking the pond is a walled, stone patio perfect for whiling away an afternoon on a sunny day or evening drinks with friends. Lyme is a quiet, rural town, known for its abundant open land, its “wild and scenic” Eight-Mile River, as well as its proximity to art galleries, restaurants, boating and recreation lands along the Connecticut River. This is a special property that has not been available for decades. Right of way over the northwest corner. Subject to probate review.
