Description
A rare summer retreat: a thoughtfully updated former schoolhouse, rich in history and beautifully positioned in one of Litchfield County's most desirable and quiet river corridors, with direct Lake Lillinonah frontage and a privately set gunite pool-just 90 minutes from Manhattan. This idyllic location in a charming village with a great market/cafe, parks, and walking trails offers easy access to the theater, restaurants, and conveniences of the historic Green in New Milford. It is also a short drive to Washington Depot for taverns, conveniences, art events, and restaurants. Inside, the heart of the home is the original schoolroom, now a main-level living space with a barrel ceiling and central fireplace. This extraordinary room functions comfortably as a place to gather, relax, or dine. Wood floors and cedar closets run throughout the three-bedroom, two-bath residence, adding warmth. The retro-style kitchen features a cozy corner banquette with open views to the outdoors. A screened dining porch invites long, lingering summer meals overlooking a babbling stream and lush greenery. A footbridge leads to the privately nestled gunite pool, completing an exquisite and rare setting, and an unforgettable place to spend the summer. Availability can be flexible. Inquire
