About This Home

As of October 2021

Serenity awaits! Make your way up the curving, stone-walled drive to your Ridgefield oasis, situated just high enough to command awe-inspiring year-round views of Pierrepont Lake. Updated, spacious kitchen with cherry cabinetry and granite countertops connects to a light and bright breakfast nook/dining area. The family and living rooms have spectacular views of the lake and a fireplace with wood-burning insert. Completing the main floor is a bedroom and full bath— perfect for an in-law, au pair or guest suite. Upstairs you’ll find 4 additional bedrooms— including the main bedroom suite with updated main bathroom—a full shared bathroom and an extra “flex” room. The backyard is totally private, fully-fenced in and has multiple entertaining spaces. Bi-level Brazilian slate patio overlooks the lake. Need more “wow”? There’s an outdoor studio (currently used as a gym), but could be a workshop, yoga studio, she-shed or…our personal favorite option…a bar! There’s even a pool site. Recent updates include: new AC (2021), updated main bathroom (2021), new skylights (2021), new water heater (2016), new hot water furnace (2016), water softener (2018), double oil tanks (2016), well pump (2016). Directly across the street is Twixt Hills Private Beach and Seth Low Pierrepont State Park for hiking + more. Minutes to Village Center and only 60 miles from NYC. Launch your kayak, hop on your paddle board or simply wade in the placid lake water…there’s still time to enjoy before summer ends!
