The Connecticut Chalet - On 5 Acres!
The space
See more on our socials @connecticut_chalet and look for the link to book direct with us in our bio there! This is a unique and stylish single family home on 5 beautiful acres that you will have to yourself and can feel like home as you explore charming Connecticut. The property has been lovingly cared for since it was hand-built by our grandparents in the 60's, inspired by an impressive Home & Gardens feature. When they moved South, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to keep this gem in the family and put our own modern twist on it. We are experienced Superhosts with a passion for creating memorable experiences for our guests and we hope that shows through the details of the home.
There is a feeling of serenity and timelessness as soon as you walk through the front door. As you head up the stairs you will be welcomed into the open-concept living room flooded with an abundance of natural light and stunning views of the property from the floor to ceiling windows in the sunroom. We created this space for optimal gathering, dining and relaxation. The hanging chair in the sunroom is perfect for soaking in morning sun with a book and cup of coffee. With the woodstove burning, take in unobstructed views of the pond and forest below and you will feel like you are living the quintessential New England lifestyle.
There is a fully stocked kitchen if you plan to prepare meals to enjoy at the spacious dining table. There are 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms in the home. The master bedroom, complete with a king bed and reading chair, is on the upper level and was designed with style and comfort in mind. Plenty of room to unpack with ample closet space and drawers. A full bath is conveniently right outside this room. Head down to the lower level to find the remaining two beds and another full bath. There is also an additional living room on the lower level making it easy to spread out and relax during your stay. There is no shortage of natural light as the lower level is walk-out. Choose from an abundance of games that were treasured by our family for generations or catch a movie on the large flat screen TV.
We encourage guests to enjoy the expansive outdoor space during your stay. While the pond is not available for swimming or skating, it sure is pretty to look at! You can often see wildlife on the property during quiet mornings and as dusk falls. Every season brings a unique beauty to the property and can be enjoyed year round. Please give the animals space and refrain from feeding them if you are lucky enough to encounter one!
Whatever your reason for visiting Connecticut, we hope to provide an exceptional stay in our treasured family home!
Guest access
You will have access to the entire home. There is no guest access to the garage or supply room. Cars must be parked outside in the driveway. The pond is only for viewing pleasure as swimming, boating, fishing and skating are strictly prohibited.
Other things to note
While we find the home to be incredibly charming, it is an older home and may have some quirks such as noticeably small bathrooms etc.
Please use extreme caution on the decks when it rains or snows as they can become slippery.
There have been bear, foxes, coyote and bobcats in the surrounding area and seen on the property. Please use caution when outside and leave animals be.
