195 Ramapoo Rd, Ridgefield, CT 06877

6 and ½ acres bordering town Open Space, a mile from downtown Ridgfield, create a private setting for your family compound. The property has the original house built circa 1820 with two barns and a separate office/studio. The house is a charming post and beam antique that has been modernized with over $300,000 worth of improvements, stone work and landscaping. Currently 4 and ½ of the acreage is in a town open space trust which mediates the tax bill considerably and a new owner can enjoy this relief as well. (This is also the reason the "Zestimate" is not accurate. BTW, the property across the street sold on 9/23 for $880,000 https://www.zillow.com/b/198-ramapoo-rd-ridgefield-ct-96wXjf/) Close to downtown Ridgefield, which boasts the Ridgefield Playhouse, the Aldrich Art Museum, the town Recreation and Senior Center, good dining and one of the best school districts in the state plus an hour and 10 minutes to midtown Manhattan. It's a great spot to raise a family and/or for creatives to live and work. House has whole house generator and rocker panel. While the property is perfectly comfortable as is, the property is well suited for the couple or family that wants to build their dream house to be part of a compound style property. The back barn is a perfect site to build a new home with a completely private southern exposure and a large enough footprint to build a comfortable modern home on. For the city dweller who has decided this might be the time to move to a more rural setting for their family this might be the ideal property to invest in. Just painted with new Azek trim. Principals only, please. Appointment required. Will pay buyers agent 3%.
