EXCITING NEW LISTING DEVELOPMENT! Now offered independently, with the adjoining land available if desired - two properties, one extraordinary opportunity at 40 Great Ring Road. This modern vision of New England living blends refined architectural character with forward-thinking innovation, energy independence, and sustainable design. The four-bedroom home features a spacious primary suite and finished lower level, offering flexibility for today's lifestyle, while a fully owned Tesla solar roof with Powerwalls delivers remarkably low utility costs, quiet backup power, and true peace of mind. Set on one of Newtown's original Great Ring parcels, once part of a historic working farm, the property captures pastoral character, sweeping views, and romantic sunsets across rolling hills, all with exceptional privacy in an increasingly built-up Connecticut landscape. The Tallman Brothers kitchen showcases bespoke cabinetry and stone surfaces, complemented by hardwood floors, custom millwork, new windows, and durable James Hardie siding. Smart home automation, programmable thermostats, and curated outdoor lighting enhance everyday comfort. Resort-caliber outdoor living includes a heated saltwater 20x40 pool, pool house for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining, and a preserved fieldstone wall honoring Great Ring Farm's heritage. The adjoining 3.43-acre parcel at 42 Great Ring Road (Parcel ID 211066) is listed separately for $399,000, or available for $299,000 if purchased with the home.
