The Pierrepont Carriage House: A Stone & Slate Masterpiece Discover a rare piece of Ridgefield history in this once-in-a-lifetime estate. Originally the Carriage House for the prestigious Pierrepont Estate, this iconic stone-and-slate residence has been meticulously preserved and thoughtfully updated for the modern connoisseur. The home's storied past-once housing the carriages and motorcars of a bygone era-is felt in every architectural detail. Outside, the current stewards have curated lush perennial gardens that envelop the property, offering a vibrant tapestry of flowering plants and specimen trees designed to capture the beauty of all four seasons.Inside, the home retains much of the original character with thick walls, clinker brick and hardwood floors, a beautifully appointed kitchen with eating area and large open living spaces. The centerpiece of the home is the stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove and a custom copper hood that can heat most of the home on a cold winter's day. Upstairs there are four sizable bedrooms, a marble hall bath, laundry room and the primary suite which has a stunning bathroom. French doors lead to a terrace with a hot tub and views of the stunning gardens from every window. The 2.1-acre estate is a rare find, comprising two distinct lots bordering 350 acres of the protected Seth Low Pierrepont State Park Preserve. This direct access to nature ensures a lifetime of privacy and serenity.
