Located in southern Litchfield County, Bridgewater was so named because visitors had to "bridge water" to enter the town. Bridgewater was originally part of New Milford known as Shepaug Neck, commonly called "The Neck" or "Sheep Pasture" until incorporated in 1856. This rural village, with less than 2,000 inhabitants, retains its rural traditions, yet is conveniently situated for commuters and weekend residents only minutes from Interstate 84 and Route 7. This 3300+/- square foot country colonial with inviting front porch is ready to move in with sunny rooms and a dramatic two story entry. The first floor features an open layout with large living areas and two fireplaces. Originally built in 1988 and totally redone in 2000, the kitchen features hickory cabinetry and opens to the living areas. The sumptuous second floor master suite includes a walk-in closet, a marble bath with whirlpool and separate shower. There is a lovely balcony off the master overlooking the wooded yard and beyond.The large deck across the back of the house is great for family enjoyment or large scale entertaining. In addition, there is a soothing hot tub nestled in an old stone foundation. The private wooded grounds with its stone walls make this an ideal country home.
