"Riverside Paradise" Academic Year rental opportunity. Riverfront Cape with Private Pond and over 800' of frontage on the Housatonic River in Sharon, Connecticut. Gated, and set on just under five ultra-private acres in the heart of Litchfield County, this completely renovated Cape-style home offers the perfect balance of modern comfort and timeless charm-with 800 feet of direct frontage in the Blue Ribbon Trout Management Area on the Housatonic River, a private spring-fed pond, and over 2,000 square feet of beautifully finished living space. The property offers a riverside Bocce Court & a fire pit. Every inch of this three-bedroom, two-bath home has been thoughtfully redone-from the gleaming hardwood floors to the custom kitchen and spa-inspired bathrooms. The main level features a light-filled living room, two bedrooms, and an open flow that's ideal for both quiet living and entertaining. One of the standout features is the screened-in porch-a true outdoor living room that overlooks the sweeping backyard and river below. It's the perfect spot to sip coffee, listen to the water, and watch the seasons change. Anglers will appreciate the world-class fly-fishing steps from the back door, while nature lovers will enjoy the walking paths, pond, and abundant wildlife that surround the home. Despite the peaceful setting, you're just minutes from the Sharon town center, the Appalachian Trail, and Metro-North train service to NYC. This rare Sharon offering delivers exceptional privacy, beauty, and lifestyle. Available Oct. 1st 2026 thru May 15th 2027.
