23 Spring Lake Rd, Sherman, CT 06784

Discreetly hidden off one of Sherman’s most beautiful roads is this stunning interpretation of a classic mid-century home, offering 5,936 square feet of exciting living space on 6.36 park-like grounds. Exquisite minimalist interiors blend art with light and design to create a gated sanctuary of quiet, calm and beauty. Two expansive additions in 1988 and 1997, designed by renowned architect David Specter, include a private primary bedroom suite and a spacious 2-bedroom/2 bath guest house. The former is accessed through an architecturally striking semi-circular staircase and encompasses a bedroom, sitting room, and his and hers bathrooms and walk-in closets. A second primary bedroom suite can be found on the main level, along with two further bedrooms and several stunning living, dining, and entertainment spaces. The elegantly proportioned rooms and outdoor spaces meld into each other seamlessly and are integral parts of the aesthetic of this beautiful country residence. The streamlined in-ground swimming pool has an adjoining spa and a concrete patio surround, setting the pool off brilliantly against the glorious garden backdrop. A Har-Tru tennis court near the house allows for easy access and enjoyment, and a temperature-controlled outbuilding provides many possible uses. The professionally-landscaped grounds encompass hundreds of dogwood trees, flowering shrubs, rose garden, a magnificent hemlock hedge for added privacy, and an enchanting allée/grove of 25 river birch trees.
