Tucked back from the road, this incredibly charming, fully renovated house offers the privacy and quiet of a country retreat yet all the convenience of being in downtown Sharon. This magical 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath house that originally was a barn has had improvements within the last six years including a new roof, new shiplap siding, new windows, two remodeled bathrooms, underground high-speed internet, added attic insulation, extensive stonework and landscaping. The large stone fireplace is the focal point of the living room and dining area, making it a wonderful place to entertain. A few steps up to the spacious family room offers another room to read and relax. The kitchen, which was beautifully renovated several years ago, has been expanded to include a bump out at the bay window to create a wonderful dining spot. Off of the kitchen, enjoy outdoor dining on a patio overlooking the landscaped property and koi pond. The lovely primary bedroom with vaulted ceiling is located on the main level; upstairs are three more bedrooms and two full baths. The lower level has two cedar closets, storage area and access to the two car garage. There have been four owners of this property in the last 40 years, each of whom has loved this house. If you are looking for something that is loaded with character, out of the ordinary, and very special, this is it. Minutes to Metro North at Wassaic, private schools and all the natural beauty of the Litchfield Hills.
