About the Home

Come experience the allure of the RED BARN where New England meets Colorado in this enchanting home transformed by local builder/designer/owner in 1985 from barn to 4 bedroom residential retreat. Artistic flair and barn integrity showcased throughout to include the owner's signature circular brick walkway design, gracious archtop doorway and impressive light filled, soaring 2 story foyer w/imported Italian marble tiles and copper detailing. The original exposed chestnut beams are paired w/polished pine ceilings exuding warmth and charm. Radiating from the center hall, the open concept leads to a gracious formal dining room and eat-in breakfast area, country kitchen w/vaulted ceiling, family rm w/expansive westerly views, LRG deck, cozy living room and hall bath. Upstairs opens to a loft style reading nook nestled between 3 bedrooms, full bath and laundry on one side and oversized master bedroom suite on the other. A 3 car garage has finished, spacious, bonus room above w/separate entrance poised for a potential private business, studio or in-law suite. Around back the original cow stanchions and horse stalls remain intact. City connected natural gas and water, CAC, all newer windows and sliders. Some TLC needed w/ room for updates. House sold AS IS. Buyers to do their own due diligence. A unique opportunity to own in desirable Ridgefield w/award winning schools and recognized destination for arts and entertainment. Convenient to Whole Foods, shops, commuting and back country!
