275 Ridgebury Road, Ridgefield CT

Set back from the road in Ridgefield’s equestrian neighborhood, this beautifully expanded and remodeled Barry Wills Cape includes a wonderful open concept floorplan and distinctive modern farmhouse styling. With over $400,000 invested since purchase, and with plans available for an upper level renovation, this impeccable residence stands poised on the edge of open space.

Surrounded by stone walls and level sweeping lawns, the home opens to reveal dark wide-board hardwood floors, simple trim work and outstanding scenic vistas. The central kitchen and dining area includes professional, stainless steel Thermador appliances with an induction cooktop, double ovens, full size refrigerator with freezer drawer, top of the line dishwasher and elegant range hood. Ample white cabinetry with quartzite counters surrounds the contrasting blue center island providing pantry space and a wine chiller. The wood-burning fireplace adds whimsy and a focal point to the room. Open to the living and family rooms, this space provides the hub from which all gatherings flow. An expansive deck with contemporary wire railings expands across the rear of the home complementing a smaller, second deck off the three-season, enclosed porch. A huge mudroom and laundry area also encompasses a half bath, while a second, half bath can be found on the way to the main floor master bedroom. The vaulted master suite includes gorgeous beams, a walk-in closet, and a master bath with marble floors and vanity plus a walk-in glass-walled shower with bench seating.

The two upper level bedrooms are spacious and feature walk-in closets. There is also access to attic storage and a full bath with tub, vanity and commode.

The views from every room are second-to-none! Bordering open space that will never be developed and including a scenic view easement, the 40-mile sunsets make evenings on the deck reflect a landscape painting by one of the masters. The wide swathes of lush lawn allow for hours of fun for sports activities or to build a pool and pool house if desired. Also equipped with a generator transfer switch. The perfect home for the perfect modern lifestyle. Don’t miss out!
