About this property

Historic Farmhouse in Northwest Connecticut. Minutes from Ski Sundown!

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.

We traveled from Ohio to visit family, and this home was absolutely perfect for our stay. Warm, cozy, and tucked away from busy roads, it offered stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. Impeccably clean, and beautifully put together to preserve its historic charm. I cannot recommend this property enough

Such a charming cozy house and beautiful property, it was the there perfect weekend away from the city. Plenty of restaurants and hiking 10-15 minutes away by car and the kitchen had plenty of utensils for meals in. Check in process was very easy and Jodi left a great book with recommendations, easy to follow instructions how to use any of the electronics and appliances and she was very responsive. Definitely recommend this home for anyone looking to stay in the area!
