The family room features a huge gas fireplace, built-ins and french doors to the brick terrace. Become the next steward of this very special home!
These owners purchased this house just 15 months ago with the intention of it being their forever home - and yet life happens and a new job calls them away. The house needed a lot of TLC and they came in and redid all of the gorgeous wideboard hardwood floors, painted & repaired everything in the interior, improved the roof, removed the decrepit pool and resurfaced the backyard. They refreshed the kitchen, repaired the gas fireplace, added a water softener system, new dishwasher, new deck off of the in-law suite and so much more! There are beautiful, professionally done landscaping plans and permits in place for a new pool and gorgeous surround. A wonderful opportunity and so close to all that Ridgefield, CT has to offer!
