Description:

Cottage, Guest House & Buildable Lot Exceptional estate opportunity in pastoral Southern Roxbury, just 90 minutes from New York City. Set on 8.71 acres, the property features a historic c.1817 three-bedroom antique cape-featured in Elle Decor-a charming two-bedroom guest house, and a separate 6.71-acre buildable lot with potential for a spacious custom home at the end of a long, private driveway. The main residence exudes rustic character, with original hand-hewn beams, wide-plank oak floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and classic plaster walls. At its heart is a spacious eat-in kitchen, flanked by a formal dining room and library on one side, and a sunlit living room wrapped in windows on the other. The 658 square-foot guest house overlooks the spring-fed pond and includes a generous living room, two bedrooms, and a full bath-serviced by its own septic. The grounds are serene and beautifully landscaped, with a cantilevered "waterfront" sun deck, mature trees, lush gardens, and gently rolling lawn. Whether you envision building a bespoke estate or simply enjoying the charm and privacy of the existing homes, this rare offering blends history, potential, and natural beauty in one of Litchfield County's most coveted locations.
