About the Home
The John Lee House, c. 1773, is conveniently situated on over 3 bucolic acres in picturesque Redding. Initially a farm, later a boys’ school, and then a homestead again, the property features a recently restored 4 BR, 3BA home boasting a two-story great room with stainless and soapstone kitchen, a dining room that opens to a bluestone terrace overlooking the breathtaking property, 5 fireplaces, hand–hewn beams and wideboard chestnut floors throughout. The barn, with electricity, offers countless additional possibilities. See addendum for list of recent improvements.
