Description

Gorgeous direct waterfront antique Colonial Revival of exceptional elegance and grace. Impeccably restored and beautifully maintained, this beloved country estate has deep roots to one of Southbury's original families. The expansive 2.26 acre property with well-manicured grounds of perennials, shrubbery and trees celebrate the four seasons with vibrant colors. Whether you are lounging by the gunite pool, enjoying the sunset on the expansive bluestone patio with firepit or watching an eagle fishing at morning sunrise, you can't help but realize that this is not only a special home, but it is an experience to be here. As you enter through the portico of the main house, you will be awed at the abundance of natural light, tall ceilings and the airiness of the home. Dining room with fireplace has an exquisitely carved corner cabinet dating back to 1787. Large living room with fireplace leads to a 4-columned side porch. The kitchen area has an adjacent and spacious butler's pantry along with a large open casual dining area. There is also a half bath and enclosed porch/office to complete the 1st floor. On the second floor, there are four bedrooms and bathroom, including a primary ensuite with water views. The third floor includes a bedroom as well as space for a studio/office. There is also a well-designed 1-2 bedroom guest cottage and a 2 car detached garage. This is a rare opportunity to own this unique and joyful home., The property is enclosed by an extensive ranch railing fence and is surrounded by a 500-acre 10th - 11th generation family-run farm. As noted by historian Mary E. McCahon, "Architecturally the house ranks as the finest local example of the academic Colonial Revival style". Its design is patterned on the 1787 Mitchell homestead that is located next door. There are many nearby hiking/biking trails to explore, including George Waldo State Park or Bent of the River Audubon Center. The Shepaug Recreation area and Bald Eagle observatory are also nearby. Close to Roxbury, Newtown, Woodbury, Bridgewater and Southbury center where you can enjoy the dining and shopping experiences of these beautiful towns. Convenient to interstate 84 and 1.5 hours from New York City.
