Welcome to Fern House at 168 Fern Avenue-an extraordinary private country estate set on 3. 71 picturesque acres in one of Litchfield's most coveted enclaves. Perfectly tucked behind mature landscaping and approached by a graceful circular drive, this quintessential New England retreat offers the rare combination of luxury living, equestrian amenities, and resort-style outdoor spaces just moments from the storybook charm of downtown Litchfield.

A dramatic double-height foyer opens to an airy, open-concept main living area anchored by a stunning floor-to-ceiling fireplace-creating both warmth and architectural impact. Designed for elevated everyday living and effortless entertaining, the chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with premium appliances including double KitchenAid wall ovens, a five-burner cooktop, dishwasher, pantry, and dedicated office nook, all flowing seamlessly into gracious gathering spaces and a formal dining room. The flexible and thoughtfully designed floor plan offers four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths, including a desirable first-floor primary suite option. Upstairs, a sunlit family room overlooks the main level below from a charming Juliet balcony, while the luxurious upper level primary suite option serves as a true sanctuary with a spa-inspired bath, jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and an abundance of custom closet space including an oversized walk-in dressing room. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath, with one offering its own private balcony overlooking the manicured grounds and pool beyond. Outside, the estate transforms into a true countryside resort. The heated pool with waterfall is complemented by a stone fireplace, hot tub, and outdoor shower, all surrounded by mature gardens that create complete privacy and a setting designed for both peaceful retreat and unforgettable entertaining.
