Property Description

Perched on a serene knoll abutting 3,000+ acres of People's State Forest & directly across the street from world class fishing on the Farmington River, this lodgelike mini compound is the ultimate alpine-inspired sanctuary! A circular drive connecting the main home with a spectacular carriage house welcomes you to explore the incredible grounds & property. A great room with soaring ceilings & a dramatic wall of windows anchors the main level, flowing into an oversized dining area & a massive wraparound deck built for epic entertaining. The luxurious chef's kitchen is a culinary haven with custom stone counters, designer cabinetry galore, a walk-in pantry, & stainless steel appliances. Main-level living is effortless with a primary suite featuring dual walk-in closets, an en-suite bath with double vanity, and laundry. Separate powder room rounds out 1st fl. The versatile walkout lower level offers instant in-law potential, complete with a second living area, kitchenette hookups, two generous bedrooms, a remodeled full bath, & separate laundry. Step outside to a covered deck & screened porch. Pass the water feature & al fresco dining platform to discover the breathtaking 800+sqf carriage house featuring cathedral ceilings, wide-plank pine floors, & walls of glass.
