20 Blackman Rd, Ridgefield, CT 06877

Own a piece of Ridgefield history! This is the charming New England farmhouse you've driven by and admired. An original "Farm of Farmingville" once occupied by some of Connecticut's early settlers. Combining modern amenities w/ historic charm, this home exudes warmth & positive energy. A chef's kitchen, w/ sunny breakfast nook anchors the main level (with easy access to the outdoors) while the amply sized dining room offers plenty of room for holiday meals. A master bedroom w/ dedicated bath is a 20th century addition but do take note of the wide board oak floors dating back centuries. Three additional bedrooms & full bath complete the second floor. Younger occupants will love the quick back stair route to the kitchen! Gathering spaces abound indoors and out. Enjoy summer evenings and sunsets from the stone patio, which, like the house is strategically positioned to take advantage of distant views. Laugh at cold exterior temperatures when you are sitting by the glowing warmth of the living room fireplace. Gather vegetables & flowers from your garden; take walks or ride bikes in the nearby Hunter Lane neighborhood or journey past the Hickories, a modern day organic farm. The close proximity to downtown Ridgefield means you are never far from recreation, fine dining, entertainment including ACT theater, the Aldrich Museum & concerts in the park. Just a 75-minute drive to NYC as well as easy access to I-84 and points north. Come see all that Ridgefield offers! 5 bed septic.
