Spectacular Farmington Ridgeline Views!
Inspired by an early twentieth century beach house, this elegant yet
comfortable colonial, with 5573 square feet, has stunning panoramic
views of the Hill-Stead Museum to the south and the Farmington
Valley and Litchfield hills to the west. The views can be enjoyed from
almost every room in the house and there are open and enclosed
porches surrounding the house.
The location, with 4.75 acres, is private and secluded, with a winding
driveway leading to stone walls, gardens and lawns. Situated just
minutes from I-84, the home also has easy access to UCONN Health
Center, shopping and recreation facilities.
This warm and inviting home combines old world charm with present
day amenities. Built in 2001 with superb design by architect Richard
Reinhart, the home features excellent quality and fine craftsmanship,
with extensive use of architectural details. Sunrise to the east brings
early morning light and evenings bring spectacular western sunsets.
The open floor plan and many windows on the south and west assure
lots of light throughout the home.
