48 East Ridge Rd, Ridgefield, CT 06877

A young Jackie Bouvier Kennedy spent summers visiting her aunt at Tower Cottage & probably walked around town as much as the current owners do! An architectural treasure featuring original detailing & charm, yet also perfectly suited for a modern lifestyle, the extensively restored Queen Anne Victorian is the definition of an iconic property. Beautifully sited on a ridge high above everything Ridgefield has to offer incl the Prospector Theatre, dog park, sporting amenities, 5-star restaurants, boutique shopping & schools, living at Tower Cottage is also offers an ideal location for commuting to Manhattan w/the Katonah Train Station shuttle stopping only steps away. In addition to reducing your carbon footprint by living in town, Tower Cottage offers an impressive wrap-around porch, well-proportioned rooms, 10-foot ceilings, 4 fireplaces & classic architectural details that cannot be reproduced today. The new kitchen features white custom cabinetry, Carrera marble countertops, Bertazzoni stove, two wall ovens, separate full-size SubZero refrigerator & freezer units, & the original coal stove. Other rooms incl formal dining room, living room, breakfast room, butler’s pantry, vaulted family room, updated baths & 6 bedrooms. Expansive views of the lawn, gardens, or heated gunite pool can be enjoyed from every window, but are most impressive from the three-story turret which includes the 1st flr library, 2nd flr master & 3rd flr study. Truly the definition of a Signature Property.
