Have you ever dreamed of living in a rustic lodge in Wyoming? A ski chalet in the Swiss Alps? Your dreams will come true when you visit this incredible home in Litchfield County. Situated in the heart of 16 acres, bordered by protected land, one disappears from the madness to enjoy privacy and birdsongs.

Situated in the heart of 16 acres, bordered by protected land, one disappears from the madness to enjoy privacy and birdsongs. The house was designed and custom built by an engineer to create the perfect getaway. The stone hearth is a marvel, the millwork is beautiful, the construction to rival a fortress. The fieldstone fireplace takes up an entire wall from floor to ceiling, yet the room retains coziness and scaled proportions. The formal dining room is perfect for dinner gatherings where the kitchen bar serves for the quick meals or "party is in the kitchen". Bathrooms and kitchen are in great shape with high end fixtures and appliances. In addition to the common rooms are a library/tv room and the all purpose work space/pool table in the finished lower level. The property is picture book with split rail fencing and a horse barn in the meadow. Home is 8 minutes to the Litchfield Green and close to Taft, and The Gunnery. This is the first time this property has been for sale and what an opportunity has just opened up.
