A very special custom built Nine room Country Colonial with unlimited possibilities & an ideal home for entertaining large parties. There's an extremely functional & flexible floor plan, generous sized rooms, & a large 26' X 19' kitchen with two pantries, a wood stove, access to the deck, an enclosed porch, & a full bath! There are 3,514 square feet on the first, second, & third levels, & the extensive use of wood makes the home very charming. The original home is the Ranch portion that was built in 1961, & the large Colonial portion was added in 2009! Located at the end of Buell Road, a low traffic street, on a 4.1 acre wooded homesite, with five out-buildings including a chicken coop, a goat barn, and a woodshed! The Organic fruit trees are currently blooming and will be providing fruit soon and the peach trees are already! You will feel like you are stepping into a nature lovers paradise, & there is the benefit of privacy too. The second & third floors have four generous sized rooms each with a closet, & currently being used as bedrooms. There are three full baths, one on each floor! There's unlimited possibilities, and lots of storage space. There are many upgrades by the current owners, and a first-floor laundry, central air conditioning, two wells, septic, and a two-car garage with automatic openers. New furnace & hot water heater Aug. 2025. Must be seen to be appreciated! It can be used as a year round home or a country get away from the hustle and bustle of the City
The owners of this home have maintained their organic vegetable garden using the "Back to Eden" approach of soil building for the last nine years. The "Back to Eden" gardening method is a no-till, organic gardening technique that emphasizes building healthy soil by mimicking natural processes, particularly those found in a forest floor. It relies on layering organic matter like wood chips, compost, leaves, and cardboard to suppress weeds, retain moisture, and improve soil fertility. Buell Road is a public road and plowed and maintained by the Town of Litchfield!
