Live your best life in the Heart of the Village. This inviting, renovated home in an easy-stroll-to-town location, one block from Historic Main Street, provides endless opportunities to experience Ridgefield's varied treasures: First-class Dining; a bevy of theaters (Prospector, ACT, The Barn, Playhouse); The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum; Library; Local Shopping; Recreation Center; Parks...and more. The sparkling white picket fence beckons you to peek inside this 1900's Farmhouse Colonial and discover its 2020's transformation. At the front door, you may be tempted to take a moment to slow down, and partake in the relaxing comfort of a rocking chair on the covered front porch...feel free to do so. As you enter the home, the living room greets you with gleaming oak hardwood floors and a cozy, open dining area at the far end of the room. To the left of the front entry is one of two bright, main floor bedrooms. Step into the totally renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and sink, new countertops and a handy walk-in pantry. Enjoy a beverage, snack or meal in the kitchen's sunny breakfast nook overlooking the green backyard. A second bedroom and a full bathroom complete the main level living quarters. An attractive, open staircase gives passage from the kitchen to the lower level mudroom, where an exterior door opens to the level backyard and bluestone patio.
The mudroom gives way to a quiet den, and a carpeted bedroom currently being used as an office. The versatility of this 750 sq. ft. lower level with a laundry area, full bathroom and private entrance is ideal for an in-law/au pair apartment, playroom, and/or private home office. A staircase from the living room opens to an upper level bonus room and a private, primary bedroom suite. The bonus room can double as a playroom, office, sitting or dressing room, or a second den. Each level of this adaptable home is equipped with a full bathroom. If the numerous closets throughout the home ever fill, there is plenty of extra storage space in the roomy shed. Take a break from the summer heat under the sheltering shade of the backyard patio awning. Savor the company of family and friends around the warmth of the crackling firepit on a cool, autumn evening. Welcome to 167 High Ridge Avenue...a Ridgefield gem!
