About This Home
As of July 2024Tucked away in one of Litchfield's most desirable locations on the Litchfield / Washington border, this country colonial has undergone an extensive and meticulous renovation in 2023/2024. Set far back from the road on a large 6.53 acre parcel, its location commands stunning views of Mt. Tom and the surrounding hills of the Shepaug Valley. This unique parcel is composed of two approved building lots, providing great opportunity for future expansion/development. Originally built in 1951, this four- bedroom, three full and two-half bath home has been completely transformed to include a NEW, huge kitchen with two dining areas, quartz countertops, and a ten-foot center island that allows for easy entertaining. The versatile, circular first floor plan includes a family room with a wood-burning fireplace and a bank of French doors leading to the expansive deck, a step-down sunroom with exposed brick, and a library/media room also with a wood-burning fireplace and built-ins. Most striking is the cherry wide-plank flooring that is found throughout the entire house adding country elegance to the bright interior. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite has a fireplace, walk-in closet, and a NEW high-end bathroom with soaking tub and walk-in shower. Two other bedrooms are joined by a NEW Jack-and-Jill bathroom, while the fourth bedroom is an ensuite, also with a NEW bathroom. Charming and original built-in dressers and drawers remain in some of the bedrooms.
