About This Home

Welcome to 6 Spring Street, a residence that transcends the ordinary. Known affectionately as "The Recycle House," this home is a testament to over a decade of meticulous craftsmanship, with the majority of its structure composed of upcycled materials. Its acclaim extends beyond its eco-friendly design, having been rated as one of the top 70 Airbnbs near NYC by the online magazine "Curbed" and featured on EarthxTV's "House of What" series. The main unit of this unique property boasts a cozy yet spacious layout, complete with an eclectic living room with floor to ceiling windows, kitchen, one bedroom, and two well-appointed baths. The lower level houses a separate in-law apartment with a kitchen, bath, and bedroom, ensuring privacy and comfort for guests, a peaceful retreat, or a creative workspace. Two expansive decks and a lush garden overlook the Pattaconk Creek and the soothing waterfall cascading over the dam. The convenience of this oasis is unparalleled, with the vibrant village center merely a stone's throw away. Here, one can indulge in fine dining, browse through eclectic shops, and partake in seasonal farmers' markets and festive community celebrations, all of which Chester is renowned for. This property, conveniently located between NYC and Boston, is more than a home; it's a living piece of art that offers an immersive experience and the charm of New England village life. Whether seeking a full-time residence or a unique getaway, this home is a rare find!
