You'll love this true nature lover's retreat, just 60 miles from NYC! Bordering 280 acre Topstone Park, this rare gem is a special place to call home. It underwent a total rebuild in 2003, resulting in a home that feels both timeless & entirely current. The professionally landscaped grounds burst with color creating a seamless connection between the indoors & the gorgeous natural landscape.At the heart of the home a chef's kitchen serves as the ultimate gathering spot, flowing into the dining/liv. areas. Here, soaring cathedral ceilings & large windows invite the light in.The charm of this home lies in its "not a cookie-cutter" personality. You'll find delightful nods to its heritage, like original oversized planked floors, exposed brick, paired with the rustic warmth of hand-hewed beams a nd hardwood floors that run throughout most of the home. With 3-4 beds and 2 fpls, the layout is as functional as it is beautiful. The primary suite on main level with walk-in closet & full bath is ideal. The lower level is a revelation, with high ceilings, a massive fireplace, bath & private entrance offering incredible potential. As a model of modern efficiency, a new roof was installed with a cutting-edge solar power system in 2023 with a prepaid 25-year assumable lease:this system currently generates more energy than the home consumes, providing a massive financial benefit. Having a nature sanctuary bordering your prop. with a beach, trails & boating is the ideal place to call home. Many people love all that this town has to offer. Redding Public Schools are known for strong academic performance, low student-to-teacher ratios, and vibrant arts and athletic programs. This location is a dream for outdoor enthusiasts and commuters alike. Situated bordering Ridgefield (The cultural arts center of CT), Weston, Wilton and Bethel, you have the best of local dining, theater, galleries, shopping, vast trail systems for hiking, and so much more! Unlike much of the surrounding Fairfield County, Redding has aggressively preserved its natural landscape, with roughly 25% of its land dedicated to permanent open space. For history buffs, Redding played a critical strategic role during the American Revolutionary War and is home to "Connecticut's Valley Forge." Additionally, commuters to NYC find Metro-north trains from West Redding, Branchville or Cannondale are quite accessible. Come make Redding your home. You'll be glad you did!
