Enjoy in-town living on a country estate in this Chic Country Antique on one of Litchfield's most sought after walk-to-town locations with an inground pool. This exceptionally updated light-filled home with 4 fireplaces has maintained its architectural integrity throughout the 1786 structure, and the later Italianate addition and is ideal for contemporary living. This classic has all the modern conveniences; new hardwood floors on most of the main level, an upscale and recently expanded & remodeled kitchen with heated floors, AC wall units in bedrooms, kitchen & office, recessed lighting, lots of closets & built-ins with up to date mechanicals and new generator. Bedrooms include a remodeled primary suite and bath with heated floors, 3 ensuite bedrooms, and 3 additional bedrooms with a remodeled full bathroom and heated floors on the 3rd floor for staff or guests. Professionally decorated, the paint colors, wallpaper, finishes & fixtures are to the highest standard. Privately set on 2.58 English inspired park-like acres of boxwood hedges, perennial gardens, mature trees, and vegetable garden, this quiet yard becomes your own oasis. Other features include a brick courtyard, a 3 car garage with new concrete floor and a newly created attached office. The lower level has access from backyard with a bathroom, gym & mudroom with new heated floors. An extraordinary amount of effort, creativity and skill went into remodeling this impeccable residence. Litchfield is your oyster!
