Secluded Luxury - Your Private Country Estate Awaits Set on 8.32 private acres of rolling woodlands and open meadows, this fantastic estate offers an exceptionally private setting-tucked high above the road and wrapped in natural beauty. Experience peace and quiet in a truly tranquil environment, while still being just minutes from the town center, shopping, and everyday amenities. The private European-style main residence features elegant living spaces, a custom kitchen, sunroom, fireplaces, and a dedicated home office. A second private home with 3 bedrooms, hardwood floors, and a sunset-view patio is ideal for guests, rental income, or multi-generational living. A beautifully finished, heated studio offers a flexible space perfect for professionals, creatives, or wellness use. Additional outbuildings include multiple barns, a high-end potting shed with water, and a walk-in chicken coop. Enjoy fresh produce from vibrant gardens, and-if there's ever an egg shortage again-you could easily start a charming side hustle right from your own coop. The in-ground pool and pool house complete the setting. With subdivision potential (consult town), this special property offers both long-term value and everyday livability. A rare opportunity-and a true Fairfield County paradise-awaits. Ask agent about the possibility of renting one or both properties. 5k per month for the 7 Old Bethel (the main house). 3k per month for 7A Old Bethel (the original home - cottage-). See agent remarks
