Welcome to 171 South Street - the historic former carriage house to one of Litchfield's most iconic residences - originally designed by "guilded age" architect Ehrick Rossiter. Extensively renovated over the years, owners reconfigured and modernized main living spaces and systems, while preserving classic details. The main level boasts a central hallway, leading to spacious open living room with wood burning fireplace and a garden room with VIEWS down sweeping lawn. Formal dining room, cozy den, chef's kitchen and bonus room currently used as a bedroom on main floor with full bath. Upper level includes primary bedroom suite with dressing room, full bath and two additional bedrooms with renovated bathroom AND a private office. New roof, rebuilt chimneys and updates to plumbing, electric and insulation complete the effort. Landscaping with native specimen plantings. Deck with southeastern views of neighboring meadow and hot tub. Private access to bordering Bantam River and White Memorial Conservation land through backyard trails. Very desirable location among notable Litchfield residences with access to nature. Walk or bike to restaurants, shopping, Litchfield Green, library, White Memorial and Greenway. Best of both worlds - in-town living in PRIVATE natural setting. Located in Litchfield's designated Historic District.
