Enjoy a charming getaway in this historic New England home built in 1767. Nestled on 30 wooded acres with private hiking trails, a pond and large field. It is perfect for those looking for an outdoorsy getaway or a relaxing retreat amongst nature. The property abuts the Barkhamsted Land Trust with trails that meander around scenic Sweden’s Swamp. A beautiful country retreat for fishermen, birders, and nature lovers looking for a place close to the Farmington River and People’s State Forest. A short drive to Historic Riverton, New Hartford, Collinsville, and Simsbury, and a two minute drive to Ski Sundown. Stay in to enjoy the cozy living space, cook in the adorable cottage kitchen, enjoy a fire in the outdoor fire pit, or venture out and explore wonderful antique shops, restaurants, coffee shops, wineries, and breweries! It has the feel of being off the beaten path, while still being close enough to lovely downtowns and shopping centers.
Designed with three bedrooms to comfortably sleep 6, with an additional pullout twin sofa bed in the living room to accommodate a seventh person.

This beautiful area of Connecticut, is where my husband and I set down roots, and where we have lovingly fixed up this property throughout the years. Our private home sits next door to this charming little farmhouse that we are so pleased to open up to travelers. We have always enjoyed hosting friends and family for all occasions in our own home, and we are excited to offer a space that is private, warm and welcoming to our guests. We hope you will feel right at home and enjoy this peaceful spot as much as we do.
