About This Home

Welcome to Fern House at 168 Fern Avenue-an extraordinary private country estate set on 3.71 picturesque acres in one of Litchfield's most coveted enclaves. Perfectly tucked behind mature landscaping and approached by a graceful circular drive, this quintessential New England retreat offers the rare combination of luxury living, equestrian amenities, and resort-style outdoor spaces just moments from the storybook charm of downtown Litchfield. Spanning more than 3,600 square feet, this expansive contemporary residence is filled with natural light, soaring ceilings, and oversized windows that frame lush views in every direction. A dramatic double-height foyer opens to an airy, open-concept main living area anchored by a stunning floor-to-ceiling fireplace-creating both warmth and architectural impact. Designed for elevated everyday living and effortless entertaining, the chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with premium appliances including double KitchenAid wall ovens, a five-burner cooktop, dishwasher, pantry, and dedicated office nook, all flowing seamlessly into gracious gathering spaces and a formal dining room. The flexible and thoughtfully designed floor plan offers four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, including a desirable first-floor primary suite option.
