About This Home
Embrace the art of living well at Poetess Place, a haven designed for writers, birders, and nature lovers, tucked away on a private riverfront perch in the heart of picturesque Kent, CT. This lovingly remodeled 3-bedroom cottage, each room adorned with queen-sized comfort, invites you into a world of warmth and serenity. Wake up to the soothing melody of the Housatonic River and be captivated by the breathtaking westerly sunsets visible from your very own wraparound Alaskan cedar deck. Immerse yourself in the tranquil ambiance, where a gentle fountain adds a melodic touch to the air, and sculpted gardens invite you to explore and connect with nature. Unwind on the cozy sleeping porch or let the Yamaha baby grand be your muse, inspiring creativity and joy. Feel the warmth of a gourmet kitchen, inviting you to create culinary delights and share moments with loved ones. Poetess Place isn't just a cottage; it's a warm embrace of luxury and nature. Nestled at the end of a rustic lane downtown Kent, the cottage offers easy access to the town's charming restaurants, unique shops, and Kent School.
