A split rail fence along the meandering drive leads you to this beautiful and sophisticated farmhouse on 15.29 acres of peaceful countryside. Storybook wrap-around porch, new Gunite heated saltwater pool, separate guest apartment, enormous barn, apple trees, perennial gardens and pond are highlights. The pristine house has recessed wood paneling and floors, window seats, built-ins and crown molding. It's warm and inviting with 9' ceilings and an abundance of windows. The formal living/dining room combination is nicely sized with exposed beams, fireplace, built-ins and glass door to deck. The Chef's kitchen boasts Dacor, Viking and Subzero appliances, polished granite countertops and deck access. Open to the kitchen is the cozy family room with fireplace. A library/study or office on main level includes window seat, recessed paneling, beams, built-ins and bookshelves. A powder room is located just off the floor to ceiling recessed paneled foyer. The dreamy primary bedroom has two baths, two walk-in closets, built-ins, bookshelves and window seat. Two additional bedrooms (one used as office) full bath and laundry are on this floor. The lower level has a finished space perfect for rec or exercise room. The separate one-bedroom apt sits above the two-car garage and enjoys its own deck. The barn is heated, cooled and is ready to be finished for party barn, studio, office or pool house. Litchfield Hills has so much to offer. Come take a look!
