About this home

Fabulous year round, weekender or maybe a guest house for extended family or friends to stay in Ridgefield near the North Salem, NY border. This stunning post & beam two-story Shelter Kit barn house was built in 2006 where "Modern meets rustic" in this beautiful retreat house surrounded by over five acres of Edenic grounds including unique outbuildings, outdoor "rooms", a labyrinth, trails, a wooden plank walkway through and around a marsh, and woodlands featuring a diverse array of native and cultivated plants. Think of...a birder's paradise, an artist's refuge, a gardener's dream. Turnkey condition with opportunities to expand (cottage has 3 bedroom septic). Just minutes to two Interstate highways, five minutes Ridgefield town center featuring wonderful restaurants, shopping, Prospector movie theater, Ridgefield Playhouse, parks, museums, library, etc. One minute to schools with tennis courts, fields and track. Perfectly ideal and truly special!
