Classic Connecticut Farmhouse renovated so perfectly making it spacious, bright, airy and right in so many practical ways and oh so comfortable. The large country kitchen offers farmer's sink, marble counters and top appliances. Plus there is a large pantry and a brick floor mud-room. Graciously sited on 2 acres of farm fields, the gardens, the views and sky are omnipresent. Solidly constructed in 1929 with a practical layout and renovated in 2010 which added all of today's quality and comfort- it is the perfect blend of both country comfort and upscale sensibilities. It is special in so many ways. Views across to the east over the town reservoir are only surpassed by the dynamic field views to the west over large farm fields. There is a 570 sf. Studio-heated that would make a perfect office for the remote working world. The 40 x 30 party barn with 20' height clearance has a hoop and room to store an apartment worth of stuff. Room for a pool or other expansions as needed. Sound and Security systems. Dog Fencing. Updated mechanical equipment. Located equidistant from Lakeville and Sharon CT. Minutes to Wassiac's Metro North Train line. Simply ideal.
