An enchanting setting surrounds this incredibly charming, one bedroom seasonal cottage situated alongside a beautiful stretch of river that encompasses nearly 2000' of frontage on the Housatonic - one of the best fly fishing waters in all of New England. Originally built as a toll house in 1860, the renovated storybook cottage is nestled on 37 beautiful acres and offers a combination living/dining room with built-ins, wide board flooring and wood stove, a spacious and cheerful kitchen and bath, and a vaulted master bedroom on the upper level. The cottage's screened porch, bluestone patio and professionally landscaped garden area unobtrusively but perfectly complement the stunning natural surroundings. Privacy and serenity under the stars and alongside the flowing waters. Plenty of acreage for a new house, with prior approvals on file for an additional 500 square foot guest cottage. This is a rare opportunity to own a vintage cottage in the country with plenty of land on a beautiful stretch of river. The Housatonic River is a jewel in New England's crown and is known for both its natural scenic beauty and for being one of the best venues in the eastern United States for recreation and fly fishing. Offering includes furnishings and a red 2003 ET4 Vespa in superb condition and with less than 1300 miles! Also listed as land listing - mls 170200371.
