About this property

Beautiful antique gem- The oldest house in Litchfield CT

Idyllic antique country cottage in a private setting. Cozy as it gets, and convenient to everything the area has to offer, including hiking, vineyards, fishing, boating, farms, skiing, and award winning restaurants. Ample space in and outdoors to enjoy the company of your loved ones. We are the oldest house in Litchfield, and boast original floors, doors and beams. We have been told The Red House simply hugs you! There are no neighbors whatsoever (by all means play your music!) but there is some noise from the main road which we like to be transparent about. It doesn't bother us, but some prefer a quieter country setting.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
