About This Home

As of October 2020

From the moment you drive up you'll know you've found a special home! A relaxing and peaceful country setting with a story-book provenance dating back over a 100 yrs, this former hunting lodge, is just moments to everything Ridgefield has to offer: restaurants, village shops, coffee bars, etc. This stone & stucco antique home offers many rooms for everyone, each filled with character and authentic charm. Featuring over 4,000 sq ft incl 4 bdrms, 3 Baths, 2 fireplaces, flexible space for multiple home offices & stainless/granite Kitchen. The highlight is certainly a voluminous double height Great Room with vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and a floor to ceiling stone fireplace. Dining Room boasts the 2nd fireplace. Master bdrm includes custom built-ins and recently renovated ensuite bath. The 2 acre yard lives as an extension of the home with access from the Kitchen and Sunroom through custom French doors with screens. The expansive patio, porch and new deck surrounding the home extend the entertainment space in warmer weather. Stepping stones lead to the in-ground pool set off discretely from the home surrounded by a private border of mature trees and landscaped grounds incl hydrangeas and peonies. 2 outbuildings perfect for storage, potting shed, etc. This house has the coveted combo of proximity to town, privacy, pool, on a cul de sac, land, complete with perfectly preserved period details. An incomparable compound for year round enjoyment...or an idyllic weekend retreat.
