Once in a blue moon, an opportunity arises on one of Roxbury's most iconic and sought-after country roads. Nestled in the heart of the exquisite, serene Mine Hill Preserve area, this remarkable property offers nearly nine acres of mature woods, rolling lawns, rock outcroppings, and privacy along some of the most scenic and pristine walking roads in all of Litchfield County-over bridges, winding past streams, and beneath ancient trees. Enter through a field gate and follow the paved driveway to a secluded rural compound featuring a one-level cottage and two substantial barns. The comfortably laid-out home features slate floors and radiant heat in most rooms. The vaulted living room has wood-burning fieldstone fireplace. There are two additional propane fireplaces-one in the sunroom and another in the den. Seven mini-split systems provide heating and air conditioning throughout. There is an approximately 25' x 40' carriage barn and the second barn is a six stall horse barn with tack room, run-in shed, and electric service. This land is completely private, with open clearings framed by mature woodland. Extensive road frontage is buffered by trees, creating a sense of seclusion while remaining conveniently accessible to the outside world! Peaceful yet not remote, and surrounded by natural beauty in every direction, this is a truly rare opportunity with endless possibilities for a country retreat, hobby farm, equestrian property, or the creation of a spectacular estate.
