Nestled on a serene 2-acre property in West Redding, off scenic Umpawaug Rd, this charming expanded Antique Barn is ready to welcome its next owner. Originally part of a working farm, this 1860 barn was transformed into a one-of-a-kind residence in 1975 by its former artist owner, John Hermansader. Today, it is a unique home with 4 beds, 2.5 baths, 4 fireplaces, a captivating great room w/soaring ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows and an abundance of natural light. Maintaining its original farm heritage, the home has Dutch doors, wide board pine floors, and fieldstone fireplaces. Spanning over 4,000SF, this lovely home effortlessly accommodates both cozy gatherings and grand-scale entertaining with ease. The French country kitchen features herringbone brick floors and a gas range w/copper hood, seamlessly flowing into the sunny gathering room, complete with an impressive brick fireplace, built-ins, and French doors leading to the adjoining deck. Descend to the lower family room, boasting yet another fieldstone fireplace, a private office/guest room, and sliders to the lower deck. Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite offers a fireplace and a private bath, while 3 additional bedrooms and a 2nd full bath complete the upper level. The picturesque yard w/mature trees, provides a tranquil retreat, all while being minutes from Rte 7 and conveniently located near downtown Ridgefield, Metro North, and Topstone Park.
