Total Privacy! Set back far off the road, this hidden 20th century contemporary gem must be seen. Your weekend or full time hideaway is tucked away on 9.45 private woodland acres down a long, level driveway in beautiful, desirable Roxbury. This striking light-filled house designed by a noted local architect has been completely remodeled by one of the area's top builders. 8 ft high windows bring in light, light and more light to fill the soaring spaces defined by cathedral ceilings and dramatic lines. A short 90 minutes from Manhattan, leave the city far behind! The home has a brand new kitchen with granite counters & ss appliances, floors refinished, a new roof, new oil tank, new furnace, new pool equipment, updated bathrooms w/new granite, a brand new 4 BR septic system, new on demand generator and introducing a delivery room attached to the garage with a refrigerator, locked and controlled by you for deliveries when you are not home, kept secure and fresh. Open floor plan, new central A/C, two wood burning fireplaces (one in the MBR), cathedral ceilings throughout, a den/office w/built in bookshelves, 3 cedar closets, an oversized two car garage with additional room attached and a gunite pool. Main floor bedroom with attached bathroom, with office adjacent.
The home is totally secluded behind a gated, regraded driveway. As you drive in this beautiful home is revealed, set far back from the road. You can see and hear the Shepaug River, visible from the pool through the trees. The house is not visible from the road nor do you see any other houses all year. But there's more! There is a level site for a guest house or tennis court. A feasibility study has been done with percs & deep holes so all you need to do is get the permits and build. If you are looking for privacy, this home gives you that even though it is conveniently located just ten minutes from New Milford with all of the shopping you could want, and ten minutes from Washington Depot, with all of the wonderful Litchfield County life offered there (the Mayflower Inn, Community Table Restaurant, GW Tavern, so much of the country lifestyle you love). Come escape to the country!
