In a verdant spot that’s seriously away from it all in Redding, CT, this 3,484-square-foot contemporary home–and 3,000-square-foot heated barn–on two acres is asking just $899,000. A veritable country estate for less than $1M, the property also features an Olympic-sized pool, a solarium, and a winery. The main house has been renovated with new flooring throughout.
The interior of the main house is framed by vaulted, beamed ceilings, new hardwood floors, and crisp white walls. The main living area is built around a huge great room wrapped by windows.
A big, airy open kitchen has cabinets galore and lots of counter space for cooking and casual dining. Adjacent is an open dining area that overlooks the grounds beyond.
The main bedroom features a deck overlooking the pool. An en-suite bath boasts double sinks, a walk-in shower, a free-standing soaking tub, and heated floors.
On the main floor is a gem of a sunroom with a hot tub. The home’s lower level offers two bedrooms with sliding glass doors, a full bathroom, laundry, and garage access.
A heated gunite pool is Olympic swimming length on one side. There’s space for less-serious swimmers, too.
The barn is a fabulous addition to the property, clad in modern black and ready for guests, celebrations–or a winery, which is its current use. Massive barn doors slide open for an indoor-outdoor experience.
The barn’s main floor spans 1,500 square feet, with another 1,500 upstairs. There’s a wood stove fireplace, a full bathroom, and a room that’s currently being used as a gym.
The grounds are currently planted with grapevines. You can continue the harvest or convert the land for whatever use you choose. The Redding train station is nearby, as are the towns of Bethel, Ridgefield, and Wilton.
