About This Home

As of April 2021

Enter through the white picket gates and transport yourself to an idyllic, tranquil, blissful country setting with surprises at every turn. Tastefully updated + exquisitely styled, the main house lives with a perfect blend of contemporary flair + historical features. The expansive family room, with handsome stone fireplace as the focal point of the room, greets one upon entry. Beams, reclaimed wood + windows galore create a perfect ambiance for gathering...grand or intimate. Adjacent to the family room, and a passage way to the gracious dining room, is a gallery for art + built-ins for your collections. The refreshed kitchen is open to both the dining room and sun room, allowing for seamless formal or casual dining + entertaining. A cozy den and an amazing office, with built-ins + bookshelves, complete the first floor. The upper floor bedrooms mix character + comfort with current amenities. Westonites might recall the days when the Follett Nursery was the steward and owner of the property. Subtle reminders remain in the spectacular historical barn, with soaring ceilings + natural light...suitable for an artist studio, work shop, additional home office space, storage + more. With over 3000 sq ft of opportunity, let your creativity flow! In summer, lounge by the pool and retreat to the pool house for cocktails + bites. In any season, explore the property's 300 ft of Saugatuck River frontage. Kayak, fish, gather around the fire pit, star gaze...the activities are endless.
