Gently rolling hills dotted with quaint church steeples, old-growth trees and antique farms -this is Southbury’s most treasured preserved historic land and it’s the view from your own front door. This magnificent custom-built country home is situated on just over three lush, professionally landscaped acres atop the former grounds of the famed Riker-Miner farm. It’s quite simply the most commanding, breathtaking view in all of Southbury. The house itself offers over 6,000 square feet of gracious, open living space, built to the highest possible standards and in the best possible taste. There are twelve spacious rooms in total, five of which are bedrooms. The grand two- story foyer features a cool, natural stone floor that leads to the luxuriously oversized and inviting formal rooms. The library has a dignified coffered ceiling, complimented by handcrafted built-in cabinetry and bookcases, anchored by a glowing fireplace. The formal living room is beautifully proportioned, roomy yet intimate and it includes solarium space for a grand piano or an additional seating area. The living room opens onto the expertly appointed chef’s kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances. And each room enjoys oversized windows to take full advantage of the home’s incomparable views. Dual staircases provide access to the upstairs living quarters where you will find the master suite with its own comfortable sitting area, perfectly situated to enjoy views of the Southbury hills, a fine equestrian center, and a glittering pond. The master ensuite bathroom has vintage-inspired black-and-white tiles, linen storage and a long stone counter with double sinks. Each of the other bedrooms offers spacious tranquility and impressive views as well. There’s also an upstairs den along with a guest wing. The third-floor attic space is completely finished and has plenty of room for a billiards table. This stunning house is exceptionally well-built and appointed and its mechanicals are top-of-the-line. This beautiful, extremely well-built and spacious home is without compromise.
