First time on the market: this custom Contemporary abuts hundreds of acres of conserved land owned by the State of Connecticut, offering sweeping pastoral views just minutes from Kent Village Center. Inside, an open floor plan blends with rustic character. The main level kitchen is light-filled with breakfast bar seating, opening to a sitting area that flows into a sunroom and out to a bluestone patio framing the view. A formal dining room with vaulted ceiling opens to the living room, anchored by a fireplace. A main level bedroom with private bath completes this floor. Upstairs, the primary suite features a vaulted ceiling opening onto a sleeping porch, with a private bath of its own. Two more bedrooms share a full bath on this level. The home was also expanded to include a separate guest apartment, currently used as a home office, with room for two more bedrooms, a living room, kitchenette, and full bath. The lower level has been finished to include a media room and laundry and the original two-car garage is now finished storage space, easily converted back if needed. A rare find in a sought-after location, just two hours from NYC.
