Description

Welcome to Viewpoint -an architectural masterpiece blending classic Nantucket shingle-style elegance with unparalleled privacy on a bucolic 24 gated acres. Approached via a sweeping drive and a grand porte-cochere, this spectacular 14,000+ sq. ft. estate spans four extraordinary levels, offering breathtaking lake views and private trail access directly to the water. Inside, impeccable craftsmanship defines every room, showcased by exquisite millwork, bespoke trim, and a seamless flow between the formal living and dining rooms. The main level is designed for both grand entertaining and daily life, featuring a handsome billiards room, and a chef's kitchen equipped with top-tier appliances and a comprehensive butler's pantry. An elevator seamlessly services the first, second, and lower levels. There is a family room that can function as a living/dining room for more casual living. There is a large mudroom, complete with a half bath and sub-zero fridge. The attached 4 car garage is also heated, features central vac, lighting and can hold up to 5 cars. There is a large coat closet for entertaining large groups, as well as a larger formal half bath. Upstairs, retire to the expansive primary suite-a true sanctuary featuring a lavish en-suite bath, a dedicated dressing room, and a massive walk-in closet. The second floor continues to impress with beautifully appointed secondary bedrooms and an oversized bonus room/library that opens into an expansive studio situated above the garage. Ascend to the walk-up attic to find a heated, partially finished top level ready for your imagination - au-pair, in-law, teen getaway, or staff quarters. The fully finished, walk-out lower level serves as the ultimate retreat. It boasts a sprawling family room, a custom wet bar (complete with beverage fridge and drawer dishwasher), space for a future gym, a large workshop area, and a private guest suite complete with closet and full bath that can effortlessly serve as a 6th bedroom. Multiple storage rooms make seasonal decor storage a cinch. State-of-the-art technology and advanced mechanicals ensure effortless, modern living: a Lutron Homeworks system throughout, Sonos whole-home audio, cameras, full security, a fresh air system, and 7 zones of radiant heat and central air. "Viewpoint" is more than a home, it is a legacy estate.

    "The Ellington farmers market in town. I do know most of my neighbors and we do talk to each other. We don’t hang out though but do help each other out."

    "It’s a drive to anywhere. No public transportation. I’m lucky and only commute 4 miles but my job is part time with poor pay. For a real job you have to drive 30-45 mins to a larger more populated area. "

    "We are 25 minutes from major highways . Farming community so smelly and farm tractors on roads ar commuting times. Tractor trailer training school nearby also uses our roads. Main road through town is becoming a very busy area with a lot of businesses and traffic, very uncharacteristic of what Ellington represents."

    "Takes 20 minutes to get to the highways. Very rural, passes by cornfields and cow farm. Grocery, pharmacy, hardware and gasoline stores are 15 minutes away. Close to Massachusetts border and not a long drive to Connecticut or Rhode Island Beaches. Also a short drive to Northern New England for winter skiing."

    "The area that I live in is not good for walking dogs as there are no sidewalks. I do see people walking their dog at Arbor Park in the center of town. Most homes in Ellington have sufficient property to allow the dog to have plenty of outdoor space roam. There are also a number of hiking trails in the area that allow well behaved dogs on a leash."

    "Moved to Ellington 6 years ago and have loved every single day of it. It's clean, safe, friendly, natural, and beautiful. Neighbors are close enough to be friendly with but the lots (on most streets anyway) are at least 1-2 acres so they aren't right up next to you. The schools are wonderful, the community is very welcoming, and it's less than 30 minutes away from 2 malls, so it's convenient but still maintains a great country feel. I'm SO glad we moved here. I've never heard anyone say they didn't love it, and I hope I never have to move!"
