This historic Victorian home in the New Preston section of Washington is now available to rent after a tasteful top to bottom renovation, and the addition of a heated saltwater pool and hot tub. The main level of the home is highlighted by the expansive kitchen with soapstone counters, a butler's pantry, and French doors leading to a rear patio area. The remainder of the first floor features a living room, spacious great room, dining room, and an office with a full bath that could be used as a 5th bedroom. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms, each named after prior owners who have called "The Humphrey's House" home over the past 127 years, including a nephew of Mark Twain. The bright and sunny primary bedroom has a stylish walk in closet, and an en-suite bathroom with a steam shower and radiant heat flooring. A brand new bathroom in the second en-suite bedroom features the same top of the line upgrades. Two additional cozy bedrooms sit across the hall, with a third second level bath serving the two rooms. Well known British designer Graham Robert Moore has transformed this Victorian gem into a marvelous display of the modern day aesthetic without abandoning the history of the home. The 40 x 18 heated saltwater pool features an electric cover and 8 person attached hot tub. This gorgeous house is just a short stroll to swimming and boating at Lake Waramaug, shopping in the New Preston town center, 30 minutes to Metro North trains and 90 minutes from Manhattan! August offered at $40,000. First week of September is also available at a pro-rated price.
