Known as Fountainhead, this distinguished 1830 Colonial is set on ten private acres at the end of a quiet country road. Mature perennial gardens, sweeping wildflower fields, stone walls, a pond, barn, guest house, and exceptional saltwater pool create a classic Litchfield County setting.The main residence spans three floors plus a finished lower level, with six bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths. Historic character is found throughout, with American chestnut beams, original 1830 architectural details, and five working wood-burning fireplaces. A completely renovated kitchen offers a fresh counterpoint to the home's period character. The lower level includes a recreation room and dedicated home theater with projection and surround sound.Overlooking the pond, the separate guest house offers an additional bedroom and bath, kitchenette, living room, wood-burning stove, and split-system AC. Outdoors, a spectacular 55' x 22.5' saltwater gunite pool with granite coping and patio deck complements gardens established two generations ago. Fully fenced and gated, with a whole-house generator, Fountainhead is a private and beautifully preserved country retreat.
