About This Home

Incredible opportunity in Kent featuring breathtaking westerly views and over 50 acres of land. The property offers a charming cottage with an open-concept living and kitchen area that leads out to an elevated deck, perfect for taking in the stunning mountain scenery. You can either expand the existing cottage or use it as a guest house while building your dream country home. Additionally, there's a detached barn with a wood shop and three garage bays. The land boasts a wonderful mix of open pasture and mature woodlands. Follow a meandering wood road through the forest to a picturesque brook, which forms the headwaters of the renowned Kent Falls. Located under two hours from NYC and just minutes from the village of New Preston and Lake Waramaug, this property offers endless possibilities in an ideal setting.
