It’s uncommon to get the best of both worlds—privacy, yet proximity to everything! This spacious home is set atop an opening in the woods, allowing it to be tucked away, yet providing access to all the amenities a thriving household needs: 5 minutes to Metro North train, 2 minutes to all major shopping, and an elementary school down the road. It also borders Ridgefield Rail Trail, the walking/biking path to downtown Ridgefield, which given Ridgefield’s exceptional restaurant/bar scene, boutique stores, and Broadway-caliber theater, that’s quite a perk! The Dining Room has ample space for holiday entertaining and the spacious Formal Living Room features a stone fireplace and large Bay Window. The warm Country Kitchen inspires cooking with a large adjoining breakfast room and gas fireplace. A spacious Mudroom with hooks and cubbies helps to weather all of Connecticut’s seasons. The cozy Family Room contains another fireplace with custom built-ins. A large Three-Season, sun-filled room leads outside to two separate brick patios, including one with a hot tub and the other to enjoy dining al fresco. A downstairs Guest Bedroom with a Full Bath and Home Office finishes off the first floor. On the second floor, there are four Bedrooms including a Grand Suite as well as a convenient laundry room. All bedrooms are generously sized with accommodating closets. The Grand Suite contains two walk-in closets and a bathroom with a shower, separate tub, and double vanity.
