This grand country home built in the early 1920\'s was inspired by the expansive views and privacy that the 42 acres of land affords. It enjoys clear westerly views to the Housatonic Valley. A third of the property consists of large fields and meadows. Additionally there is a vineyard. Also a saline pool. The landscaped portion of the property which include mature plantings and cutting and vegetable gardens was designed by Michael Trapp. The woodland portion of the acreage features walking and hiking trails. The exterior of the home is made of handmade Belgium brick and the ceilings are all 10\' plus. Thick plaster walls throughout are evidence of the quality construction. The layout is perfect for entertaining and takes advantage of the outdoors and views. Almost every room on the main level opens to the outdoors including several brick and stone terraces, patio and rear yard. The second level features a 26’ x 28’ grand room with 20\' plus ceilings and extraordinary fireplace. The master suite consists of a sleeping room, 2 bathrooms, library and spa room. A second bank of 3 bedrooms is on the opposite side. Two more bedrooms are off their own hallway and perfect for guests who want privacy or staff quarters. The current owners have restored this architecturally significant home to its original glory and included all the modern conveniences and amenities. Michael Trapp consulted on the interiors and gardens. The roof and mechanical systems have all been updated. The original casement windows have been restored and new custom storm windows have been added for energy efficiency. A second gated driveway was installed and meanders through the front field as one approaches the front balustrade and entry. The house is light filled and changes with the seasons. This is a home that is full of romance and with little effort one can imagine they are in a Tuscan villa.
