About This Home
An unprecedented opportunity to acquire a breathtaking 7-acre multi-home compound abutting 3,000+ pristine acres of People's State Forest and directly across the road from kayaking & world-class fishing on the Farmington River! Uniting two spectacular, standalone residences and a carriage house, this sanctuary offers unmatched flexibility as a multi-generational estate, an income-producing retreat, or a live/work compound. 78 is a chalet-inspired retreat featuring a dramatic great room anchored by a soaring wall of glass. Built for epic entertaining, the space flows seamlessly into an oversized dining area and showstopping wraparound deck. The luxury chef's kitchen boasts custom stone countertops & a walk in pantry. Main level primary suite with dual walk-in closets. The lower level features two additional bedrooms & in-law suite potential. Across the scenic grounds, follow the fairy lights and cross the charming bridge to find 82 E River: a jewel box storybook contemporary. Similarly impressive with a stunning two story great room, modern kitchen, & fabulous outdoor space, there's also a main-level primary with bespoke crown molding, & chic ensuite. 2 BRs upstairs share an alpine-inspired bath, & there's finishing potential in the basement. Impossible to duplicate and offering a lifestyle defined by peace, privacy, and endless adventure, this is not just a forever home, but a generational, legacy property to be enjoyed for decades to come!
