Opportunity abounds with this charming 1920's farmhouse in a neighborhood with $2 million-plus homes. Just a mile from Ridgefield's historic town center, this home has been occupied by the same family since the mid 1930's. With its welcoming front porch and mature plantings, it is easy to look back through the years and see the history of family gatherings, backyard games, and neighborhood congeniality that characterized Ridgefield then and now. Legend has it that this home was once located a few hundred yards down the road and then rolled on logs drawn by a team of horses to its current location. Most recently renovated in the mid-1990s, this home is ideal for those seeking a foothold in Ridgefield or, potentially, looking to expand. There is city water and the roof is only 5 years old. The home sits on the southeasternmost corner of the land with more than a football-sized lawn behind. Conveniently located near Rts 33 and 35 this is an ideal commute location only 60 miles to midtown Manhattan and 20 minutes to the Katonah Train Station. This property is being sold strictly AS-IS. Buyers are to do their own due diligence as to what is possible. Come experience all that Ridgefield has to offer with its top-rated schools, restaurants and shopping and designation as CT's #1 cultural spot.
