Om vÀrden
Thomas Toller Àr vÀrd
We are a family of 4, Thomas has lived and worked all over the world, including Europe, the UK, Asia, and New Zealand before moving to the US. Erin is New England born and raised. We met in the City in 2010 and moved to Fairfield CT to raise our 2 boys (9 and 7) in 2016. The photo gallery in the hallway features pictures of some trips we have taken to other places on, by or surrounded by water.
Varför vÀrden valde detta boende
The cottage is primarily for our own use and set up our family with young children like ours, and to host our family and friends. We choose this year-round property as a perfect getaway, only a 1-hour drive from home in Fairfield CT and 2 hours drive from NYC. A 3-4 minute walk to Bantam lake and a 10-20 min drive to walking trails and Mohawk mountain ski area to teach our sons to ski. There are also local farms to visit in the fall and a great bookshop in Washington Depot a rainy day and lots of great places to eat local food.
Vad som gör detta boende unikt
The cottage sits on a double lot, originally one had the garage and the other a smaller cottage. When the property was expanded the oversize great room was built linking both, the open layout and vaulted ceiling create a great entertaining and family space (the square footage is double that found in most other 2 bed properties in the area). The layout lets you put the kids to bed at the far end of the house and enjoy a glass of wine or sit around the fire-pit without waking them. Erin works in publishing and is an avid reader, she has curated some interesting reads at the house.
