About This Home

As of May 2025

Seller requests highest and best offers by Wednesday 3/19 5pm. Multi-generational home! Full guest/in-law and main house were redesigned & updated in 2007 using top-of-the-line materials. This impeccable property results from over twenty years of the owner's keen eye for detail, sparing no expense, seamlessly combining comfort and function. Located on one of the prettiest country roads in Brookfield, close to Brookfield Center, near the fabulous Shakespeare's Gardens, it is less than a mile to the boat launch at Lake Lillinonah. It is perched in a private setting, where you can enjoy gorgeous views of the Bridgewater countryside. This spectacular property welcomes the next generation of ownership. The main renovation included new windows, electrical, plumbing, baseboard heating was replaced with HVAC/warm air heat & central air system, custom woodwork throughout, and much more. The house was completely repainted in 2023. The roof with metal detail was completed in May 2024. A full-house generator backs up the entire home. Stonewalls & walkways, flowering trees, gardens, split rail fencing with a pet containment area accentuate the level backyard. The renovation list is too extensive to list here, & is contained in the MLS supplements. Ask your agent to provide it for you! This location is one of the best places to live- nestled in on a rolling country road, great for walking yet close to conveniences: great eateries, shopping, and Brookfield center.
