Description

Welcome to this "one of a kind" offering in an extraordinary location walking distance to town and 4 minutes to the NY (Westchester County) border. Built in 1880, this was once part of an estate on High Ridge Avenue owned by a "William A Jenner" who summered in his home on Publishers Row as it was called then. This part of the property was called Overlook Farm. It housed a carriage house, a caretakers cottage and this beautiful barn. The other two buildings in front of this house were sold a few years ago. Own a piece of Ridgefield history in this charming 4 bedroom home with 4 fireplaces, large great room, new kitchen & new master bedroom suite w/ fireplace & fabulous new master bath. There is a beautiful 3 room apartment over the 3 car garage which includes a fireplace in the large great room, good sized bedroom, updated bathroom, kitchen as well as a washer and dryer. The entire apartment as well as the main house has just been painted. The main house has 3200 square feet, the apartment has approx 919 square feet perfect for in-laws, a nanny or private workspace. The master bath is totally brand new, family bath in the hallway re-done as well. The new kitchen has the latest & greatest accessories. Enjoy the heated in-ground pool located right off the kitchen w/ lots of decking and patios surrounding the pool. The property has been professionally landscaped and is beautifully maintained. Tired of the usual traditional houses? Then this is your house!

    "Great area for families and people who want a slower pace of life. Biggest challenge is there aren't enought nice markets and it is expensive to live here."
  • Neighbor
    "20+ minutes drive to Golden’s Bridge Metro North RR Station where parking can be difficult. Then an hour, 10 minutes train ride to Grand Central. Watch for potholes as Ridgefield Highway Dept does a poor job of paving and fixing pot holes turning them into washboards, if they fix them at all. "
