About this home
Western-facing views from this homestead spanning over 50 acres in Kent. Immerse yourself in nature, where you can hike, mountain bike, cross-country ski, fish, or hunt on your own land! A delightful 1-Bedroom residence boasts an open-concept living and kitchen area that seamlessly transitions to an elevated deck, ideal for enjoying sunset mountain views. Enjoy the home just the way it is, expand it, or retain it as a guest house while constructing your dream home. A detached barn that includes a wood shop and three garage bays offers remarkable versatility. The Barn/Garage shares the same distant views as the main house and features a spacious layout that invites finishing touches. Envision this area overlooking the stunning sunset! Perhaps part of it could serve as a Home Office, a Gym, or your Recreation Barn. All these functions could be combined to still accommodate some Vehicle Storage bays! The potential is huge! This 50-acre property features diverse landscapes, including the slopes of a mountain that descend into a charming valley with a scenic brook. A former logging trail winds through open fields and established woodlands, ultimately reaching a brook that signifies the beginning of the famous Kent Falls. Located under two hours from NYC and just minutes from the villages of Kent, Cornwall, New Preston, and Lake Waramaug.
