About This Home

Welcome Home to this beautiful estate property, sited on 7.39 private, picturesque acres just minutes from Ridgefield's vibrant village center. Built in 1970 and offering 5,705 square feet of above-grade, finished living space, this classic Colonial and the surrounding property are brimming with opportunity. The custom-built residence's main living space includes a gracious living room, formal dining room, dedicated office, and a large kitchen and breakfast room. An expansive great room with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, custom built-ins, and split full bathroom anchors the home. All bedrooms feature ensuite bathrooms and ample closet space, plus views from multiple bedrooms of the beautiful setting. The grounds are truly spectacular--lush, mature, and serene, with the solid footprint of an older tennis court and shed ready for restoration or reimagining. Countless opportunities for this stunning estate. The home features solid hardwood floors throughout, clapboard siding, central air conditioning, oil-fueled baseboard heat, poured concrete foundation, well, septic, and pull-down attic. Enjoy the remarkable balance of privacy and mere minutes to the village center for boutique shopping, restaurants, theaters, museums, district schools, parks, and quick zip to major commute routes to lower Fairfield County and NYC. Note, this is an estate sale, residence and property being sold "as-is". Welcome Home!
