Quintessential Country Cottage, a perfect blend of form and forest. Privately tucked away on four acres of natural Connecticut landscape, this custom-built, two-bedroom shingle-style residence is a rare marriage of rugged post-and-beam soul and refined modern luxury. Ringed by ancient stone walls and shielded by a soaring canopy of mature oak, maple, and pine, the home serves as a secluded sanctuary. Following extensive renovation and enhancement by the master craftsmen at West Mountain Builders, every inch of the nearly 2,000-square-foot above grade interior reflects exquisite attention to detail. A studio apartment over the detached garage complete with kitchenette & full bath is ideal for guests or a private workspace. Washington is known for its charming village center, rolling hills, and vibrant cultural scene. Take advantage of nearby destinations, including the shops of New Preston, Lake Waramaug (residents have beach rights), the hiking trails of Steep Rock Preserve, and the renowned Mayflower Inn & Spa. Ideally located near top-rated schools, this home can serve as a full-time residence or a quiet weekend retreat. Two acres of the property have a conservation easement. Main house has geothermal heating/cooling system. Property has 2 septic systems, one for main house and one for garage apartment and a full property Kohler generator. Security cameras are operational on outside of house and garage.
