Indawo
This historic circa 1850s property once served as a gunsmith’s shop along the beautiful Bantam River just across from the old depot. It has undergone an extensive renovation preserving the historic charm but modernized for a New York City family seeking a luxurious and peaceful retreat.

The location is quiet, serene and private, yet convenient to the very best villages and attractions Litchfield County is known for. There are no other homes in view, yet the cottage is centrally located only 4 miles from downtown Bantam, Washington Depot and New Preston as well as Bantam Lake, Mt. Tom State Park and Lake Waramaug. Three of Litchfield County’:s best skiing and snow boarding resorts are located within 30 minutes of the cottage - Mt Mowhawk is just 15 miles away! There is cross country skiing nearby at local state parks.

Also close to several private boarding schools including The Gunnery and Rumsey Hall for visiting parents or faculty. Nearby activities include the Connecticut Wine Trail, plentiful hiking trails, and the Woodbury Antique trail as well as several fine dining restaurants and spas including Winvian Farms, The Mayflower and Arethusa’s al Tavolo—all within five miles.

A large landscaped deck is beautifully furnished with comfortable seating, dining, a charcoal grill and firepit. Near the water’s edge you’ll find a dining table and two wonderful Adirondack chairs. Across the large garden lawn are two comfortable garden benches nestled in the flower garden and at the forest edge—perfect spots for a quite conversation or enjoying some time alone. An oversized hammock hangs in a small grove of majestic pines near the river’s edge as well.

There are even granite steps installed to lead you into the river.

No other homes are in direct view of the property, which gives the feeling of being very private. Very little road traffic - peaceful and quiet. A few passers by on foot, walking their dogs, is much more common. You feel like you're a million miles away from everything, when actually you are quite close (within 5 miles) to the very best Litchfield county has to offer.
