Escape to Your Private New England Colonial Sanctuary – A 4000 sq ft Forest Retreat
Tucked away at the end of a spectacular, winding driveway that feels like a page from a New England storybook, this elegant colonial home sits gracefully in the heart of 7 acres of peaceful, serene forest. Whether you’re seeking a romantic getaway, family adventure, or peaceful reset, this stylishly decorated 4000-square-foot colonial welcomes you with timeless charm, modern comfort, and the beauty of all four seasons.
Step inside and be instantly charmed by the classic colonial layout and thoughtful details. The huge great room serves as the heart of the home — spacious and inviting, with a crackling wood-burning stove, big-screen TV for cozy movie nights, and a piano ready to fill the air with music. Sunlight streams into the sunroom off the gourmet kitchen, where you’ll love cooking in the expansive kitchen with its cheerful breakfast nook. Gather for meals in the elegant formal dining room or relax with a book in the front living room.
With 3 spacious bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, there’s plenty of room for everyone to spread out and unwind. French doors from the great room open onto a furnished deck — perfect for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or simply soaking in the forest sounds around you.
Pet lovers rejoice! One full acre surrounding the house is completely enclosed with a 4-foot chain-link fence, giving your furry companions room to roam safely while you relax.
This is true four-season living in Connecticut’s beautiful countryside:
• Spring & Summer: Wake to birdsong, explore nearby lakes, or drive just 45 minutes to the beaches of Rhode Island.
• Fall: The surrounding forest explodes into stunning autumn colors.
• Winter: Snuggle by the wood stove after a day at one of New England’s charming mini ski resorts.
Perfectly located between two iconic cities — just 1.5 hours to Boston and about 2 hours to New York City — this colonial forest home offers the perfect balance: total privacy in nature with easy access to culture, dining, and excitement.
Whether you’re here to recharge, celebrate, or simply breathe easier, this beautiful colonial retreat is your year-round New England escape.
We can’t wait to host you!

Host profile image
I am originally from Huntington Beach, California. I moved to Connecticut in 1986.I ran a Child Care business for 47 years in California and Connecticut combined. During that time, I also ran in RV Rental business here in New England. Closed both of those businesses and decided my retirement job would be hosting Airbnb and Vrbo vacation homes. I have one in Louisiana it is called 4000 ft.² of paradise on a lake and this one is 4000 ft.² of paradise in a Forest. It is a very busy Job to pick for a retirement job lol. But I love it!

Why they chose this property

Being from the beach in Huntington Beach, California, I would always want to visit a forest. My husband and I had four children and I just did not want them to grow up in the LA area because it’s so hard of a life. So I picked Connecticut and bought the house deep in the forest. It is so quiet out here and gorgeous!
