Tucked away off a peaceful country road in the charming hamlet of Cornwall Bridge, Connecticut, this secluded 19-acre parcel offers a rare opportunity to create a private haven in one of Litchfield County's most unspoiled corners. Gently wooded with 100-year-old pine trees and rich with natural character, the land provides the perfect canvas for your dream home-whether it's a custom-designed three-bedroom retreat that blends seamlessly into the landscape or a sleek, pre-fabricated modern cabin that brings minimalist luxury to the wild. The property is thoughtfully prepared for development, with a driveway in place, underground electric installed, the well has been drilled and a septic system has already been approved-significant investments that make building your future home a streamlined process. Whether your vision includes a weekend escape, full-time residence, or design-forward compound, this land offers the flexibility and infrastructure to bring your ideas to life with ease. What truly sets this parcel apart is its unmatched privacy and protected setting. The eastern boundary abuts 24 acres of quiet, undeveloped state land, while the east and northern edges border lands owned by the Cornwall Conservation Trust-ensuring your surroundings remain tranquil and untouched for generations to come. Birdsong, rustling leaves, and the soft murmur of nature will be your only neighbors. Located just minutes from the Housatonic River, Appalachian Trail access points, and the charming villages of West Cornwall and Kent, you will enjoy the best of both worlds: total seclusion with easy access to hiking, fishing, dining, and cultural attractions. Less than two hours from NYC, this is a rare chance to own a substantial, build-ready property in a coveted part of northwestern Connecticut where conservation, beauty, and serenity take center stage. Whether you are an architect looking for inspiration, a nature lover seeking stillness, or a modernist planning your woodland escape, this parcel offers a truly exceptional opportunity to live in harmony with the land.
