Owned by an award-winning interior designer, and a Hollywood screenwriter, originally from the UK. This home offers elegance and inspiration. Warm and inviting from the moment you see it; new world comforts meet old world charm in this exquisitely refurbished farmhouse. This house is your quintessential storybook home with warm fireplaces in the winter and stone patios for summer evenings. Complete with wide floorboards and exposed wood beams. Comfortable sitting areas for quiet evenings and a large dining room to entertain. Including two ensuite bedrooms on the main floor.
The original building predates 1900. Over the years, a living room was added, and the buggy barn was converted into a guest suite. Then later, three further bedrooms, a great room, and full basement were added. Amenities include a butler’s pantry (with wall oven, dishwasher, bar, refrigerator, and warming oven), a gym, and games room / screening room. Adjacent to the Norwalk River Trail and Ambler Farm, the property benefits from professional landscaping, with established gardens and mature specimen trees - two of which are part of Connecticut’s Notable Tree Program. This is a truly unique property, set in an idyllic location.
