Description

This lovely New England Cape "Bow House" is a revered country retreat that sits prominently on 3.33 acres in an enchanted pastoral setting on one of Sherman's most beautiful and sought-after roads. Boasting year-round protected farmland views and a house and grounds made for living the good life! There Is a 40 x 20 gunite pool, an outdoor kitchen, tiki bar, two barns, three pastures, fire pit, bocce court, and an adorable bunk house. Inside, the 3 Bedroom/2 Bath home offers a recently renovated kitchen and bath, large living room, formal dining room and den - most with beautiful wide plank pine flooring. Adjoining the den is a reproduction 1950's diner that offers a delightfully nostalgic ambiance in which to relax or dine. A mini butterfly staircase takes you to the bedrooms on the upper level, while the finished lower level offers recreation areas and an homage to America's favorite pastime. All interiors are lovingly decorated and offer farmhouse accents and unique relics of iconic American eras, from Colonial and Western times to the 1950's. The farmland views, 3-stall horse barn and 3 newly fenced pastures are ideal for horses and/or other farm animals. There is a whole house generator, heated garage, and mature specimen plantings. There is also nearby access to miles of walking/hiking trails. This is a perfect mini compound for weekend or year-round living in total privacy amid a beautiful country setting located less than 90 minutes from Manhattan Bow House Inc. is the name of a Massachusetts firm that created architectural designs for homeowners who want houses built along the lines of traditional Cape Cod structures. The bowed roof is an homage to the Cape's connection to the sea; the techniques of making ships are applied to the framing of the roof, which is designed to shed snow and rain and be resistant to winds.

    "No dog park in town but there are parks and trails to walk dogs. On the downside there are potential predators around, coyotes, Bob cats, bears. I have small sized dogs so I’m wary of letting them out on their own."

    "Sherman: Connecticut’s �Best Small Town� On the northern end of Candlewood Lake, a picturesque, quaint town gives residents and visitors a sense of tranquility and calm. Named �Best Small Town� by Connecticut Magazine, Sherman is a wonderful place for families, singles and retirees. Several golf courses, year-round lake access and beautifully rolling hills make Sherman the ideal place to live. "

    "Sherman is quite beautiful, bucolic, and upscale. Many individuals that live in NYC also have second homes in Sherman. It is very quiet and also safe. We have lived here for 19 years and never locked our doors. The only break-in we had was about two years ago when a neighbor's dog put his nose in our back door, opened it, and came in during the night. We live in the country but are only ten minutes from the train station, where you can get an express to Grand Central Station. I taught in the Sherman School for two years and can vouch for its excellence. Not much to do here but there is a playhouse and occasional chamber music. Oh, forgot to mention, we are also on the largest lake in Connecticut, Candlewood, so bring your boat. Overall, Sherman is a great place to unwind and raise a family. People tend to move to Sherman and then never leave..."
