AS you turn into the driveway to this perfectly serene setting, any stress you may have will magically disappear.
This special single level house sits next to a beautiful stream (actually the Hollenbeck River) on 3 quiet, peaceful acres in the northwest corner of Connecticut.
Surrounded by the picturesque Litchfield County towns of Lakeville, Salisbury, Canaan, Cornwall and Kent and to the north, the Massachusetts towns of Sheffield and Great Barrington. The location couldn’t get any better.
For music lovers, Music Mountain is just 15 minutes away, Tanglewood is an hour’s drive north, and the Yale Summer School, in Norfolk, holds frequent concerts. In winter, there are 3 ski resorts in the area and plenty of cross-country skiing in the state parks.
Inside the house, you will find vaulted and beamed ceilings, lots of French doors, a gourmet kitchen with stainless-steel appliances, a small office/study, and wide-planked wood floors throughout.
The 3 spacious bedrooms all have full bathrooms. Two bedrooms overlook the river. The third bedroom has steps leading to a sleeping loft. The living room / dining room / kitchen is an open floor plan with columns separating the living/dining areas.
The spacious deck outside the living room is the perfect spot to enjoy beautiful views of the river, pastoral fields and distant hills. There is a parking area outside the house as well a stand-alone one-car garage.
