About this property
100% WASHINGTON! PoshPadsCT "SUNNY RIDGE" 8-BR Estate, Heated Pool, BBQ, Magical
Sunny Ridge Farm is a magnificent country estate on 14 acres in the Sunny Ridge Historic District. It is the largest home (17,000 SF) in Washington, the most exclusive town in rural Litchfield County.
The estate has been meticulously restored and has almost every possible amenity - 8 over sized bedrooms which include two guest suites and maid's quarters, 2 living rooms, 2 recreational rooms, billiard room, screening room, wine cellar, gourmet atrium sky-lit kitchen, party room for 200 with bar, massive fireplaces, sun room, wood paneled library, 16-car garage, formal gardens, croquet/badminton lawn, multiple stone terraces, over sized heated pool, pond, beautiful grounds with two of the largest silver maple trees in CT and other fruit trees.
Washington is located in historic, rural Litchfield County, within a scenic 2-hour drive from NYC and is exceptional for its excellent restaurants, spas, antique shops, art galleries, boutiques, farms, historic homes, gardens, vineyards, distilleries, and orchards. The Gilmore Girls creator modeled Stars Hollow, the perfect Connecticut town, after Washington and the Independence Inn after the Mayflower Inn. It is the current or former home to many artists, writers, actors and Wall Street executives – referred to as "more Vermont, than Vermont" and "the un-Hamptons". Nature preserves, Lake Waramaug, and the Shepaug River offer extensive hiking, biking, and water activities. Mohawk and Sundown Ski Areas , Lime Rock Raceway, and Quassy Amusement Park are all a short drive. ExploreWashingtonCT and PoshPadsCT have the best listings of area amenities and event calendars. (Note that VRBO-HomeAway's map needs to be zoomed to really show Washington and Roxbury listings only and not homes 30 minutes away in less desirable locations.)
All of my homes in Washington and Roxbury (PoshPadsCT) are beautifully landscaped with flowering shrubs, flagstone terraces with gas bbq. And heated pools. They are furnisged with Frette pressed cotton sheets, plush towels and bathrobes, down featherbeds, comforters and pillows. Optional maid and catering and massage services are available. All homes have Central heat and AC, WiFi, flat screen televisions with dvds, cable and movie channels, and central alarms.
A car is necessary to enjoy rural Roxbury, Washington and Litchfield County.
The nearest bus station is Southbury, 15 minutes away.
The nearest train stations are in Amenia and Wingdale NY or Danbury or New Haven CT – all about 45 minutes away.
Monthly rates have utilities and snow plowing, lawn mowing, pool cleaning and pool heat billed as incurred. There is a $4000/month security/utilities deposit.
Exquisite, chic design - furnished with antiques, art, and other fine furnishings. Elegant stone bathrooms. Frette cotton sheets, bath linens, bathrobes, down feather beds, pillows, comforters - as comfortable and easy as a full-service luxury hotel. Maid service, dry-cleaning and catering available upon request.
Within a few miles of the Mayflower and Winvian Inns and Spas for the finest dining and spa services in New England as well as numerous other country dining options. Nearby Lake Waramaug, Sundown and Mohawk Skiins, Vineyards and more!.
Quiet scenic historic estate neighborhood - no loud exterior parties/events nor loud music - this is a luxury family vacation rental home in a private country setting. Serving Washington and Roxbury visitors, schools and residents for over 20 years.
