As if straight out of a storybook, this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom Cape sits perched on the banks of Sandy Brook. Thoughtfully designed, the home's crisp white clapboard siding, steep rooflines, and central stone chimney give it an elegant and timeless presence. Step through the foyer into the open living space, where a large stone hearth anchors the room and floor-to-ceiling built-in bookcases line the walls. Two picture windows frame tranquil views of the brook as it flows gently past. The kitchen offers abundant storage and prep space, ideal for hosting gatherings, while just off the dining area, a spacious screened-in porch extends out over the water below - a magical spot to unwind and entertain.The main floor also features a cozy, private den with a large closet and an ensuite bathroom, and a dedicated utility and laundry room. Up the elegant L-shaped staircase, you'll find a sun-drenched primary bedroom with vaulted ceilings and generous windows. Down the hall are two additional bedrooms - one with a private sleeping porch with views of the pines and laurel on the opposite bank of the stream. Two cedar-lined closets and a full bathroom complete the upstairs level. Havenly Cottage is all elegance and simplicity - clean lines, an intuitive and functional layout, and an enchanting natural setting. Tucked between the allure of the Berkshires and the quiet buzz of Litchfield County's small towns, Colebrook is one of the area's best-kept secrets. Known for its scenic reservoirs, miles of hiking trails, and storied history, it's a nature lover's paradise.True to its name, Havenly Cottage offers a peaceful sanctuary among the hills - a place to breathe deeply and feel completely at home.
