10 Red Horse Hl, Sharon, CT 06069

Tucked away at the top of Red Horse Hill and accessed by a private treelined road, this custom-designed energy-efficient Timberpeg® post-and-beam home built in 2010 is beautifully sited on 9.5± acres that deliver pure privacy in a restful rural setting. The 4,300±- square-foot home was designed for low maintenance and built to optimize live-work-play purposes with two separate home offices and an array of modern features to accommodate those who prefer combining work and leisure activities … and enjoy blurring the boundaries between interior and exterior. Throughout the house are high beamed ceilings, dramatic oversized Anderson windows, custom fixtures, and radiant heated wide plank oak flooring (sourced locally from Hull Forestry, awarded for sustainability and conservation practices). An additional 2,300± of unfinished space offers the flexibility to expand to 6 bedrooms. The 2,320-square-foot main floor features a lightswept great room, a living area that opens to the dining room and kitchen, with a 20-foot cathedral ceiling, built-in custom shelving, and cabinetry. The large raised fireplace features fieldstone from the property and an internal 14-foot copper chimney. Hidden trough up-lighting channels warm light in the living. The repeated eyebrow transom window design draws in the hillside views and sunlight. The expansive room with Douglas fir ceiling, walls and beams create a grand, cinematic feeling upon arrival, and the open layout affords an easy flow for large-scale entertaining. The dining area is set along a triptych of windows that allows ample natural lighting and one of the best views of the property. The adjacent glass French doors provide direct access to the sky-lit screened porch with Mahogany flooring and dual ceiling fans, as well as an outside bluestone overlook terrace with 180° views—additional spots best suited for al fresco dining, entertaining, lounging, or morning coffee with surrounding birdsong. The area off the patio ledge offers an ideal site for an infinity pool. Off the terrace is a fiercely effective fire pit that is perfect for ‘campfire-style gatherings to toast marshmallows or to make more elaborate homemade s’mores around the fire for those storytelling evenings. The sizable and well-appointed gourmet kitchen features custom Kountry Kraft Kitchen cabinets for ample storage and utility, a matte-finished granite center island, Sub-Zero refrigeration, 6-burner Wolfe gas range with griddle, and a Miele dishwasher. The alcove area beyond that features a separate coffee station, sideboard with Sub-Zero wine fridge and Sub-Zero refrigerated and freezer drawers, and a breakfast nook with banquet seating—a perfect spot for casual dining or to catch-up on e-mails or a good book. Quietly located apart from the common spaces is a first-floor master suite — one of two — that echoes the sense of scale with high ceilings, big windows, and exposed beams. The ensuite bath features twin vanity sinks, a walk-in glass steam shower, and a massaging air bubble tub. There is also a walk-in closet. Completing the main floor is a separate laundry room with a utility sink, a powder room off the kitchen, and another off the great room. The main level features radiant in-floor heating, custom VT based Hubbardton Forge lighting fixtures throughout. Winding up from the great room is a staircase graced with copper balusters and leads to an upstairs loft that serves as an office and has a view of the great room. The upper floor provides room to work, to talk, and to think. The space is for everyone—the painter, the writer, the craftsman, and the family.
