Great weekend

We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay. The house was clean, nicely decorated and well stocked. A lovely welcome basket was waiting for our arrival. We enjoyed the pool and walking the property. The listing does not make it clear how close you are to town. We expected to be way out in the country but were very pleased to realize that a short 2-3 minute drive and we could pick up breakfast or get dinner or enjoy the events in town while still enjoying the quiet of the large property. Perfect mix of country quiet and easy access to stores and food. We highly recommend this property and host.

What makes this property unique

Escape to gracious country living! Welcome to PoshPqdsCT,com, our collection of pristine renovated country rental homes located in historic, rural Litchfield County, within a scenic 2-hour drive from NYC. Washington is exceptional for its excellent restaurants, spas, antique shops, art galleries, boutiques, farms, historic homes, gardens, vineyards, distilleries, and orchards. The Gilmore Girls creator modelled Stars Hollow, the perfect Connecticut town, after Washington and the Independence Inn after the Mayflower Inn. It is the current or former home to many artists, writers, actors and Wall Street executives – referred to as "more Vermont, than Vermont" and "the un-Hamptons". Nature preserves, Lake Waramaug, and the Shepaug River offer extensive hiking, biking, and water activities. Mohawk and Sundown Ski Areas , Lime Rock Raceway, and Quassy Amusement Park are all a short drive.
Each home was acquired for its architectural interest and private country setting in Washington's or Roxbury's most scenic neighborhoods. All are beautifully landscaped with flowering trees and shrubs, flagstone terraces with gas barbeques, and new in-ground gunite pools. Each has been exquisitely re-designed and furnished with art and antiques, elegant bedrooms and new luxury bathrooms, and chef's kitchens with new stainless steel appliances. Relax and refresh with Frette pressed cotton sheets, plush towels and bathrobes, Bigelow bath amenities, down featherbeds, comforters and pillows. Maid, catering, private chef and massage services are optional. Enjoy central heat and air conditioning, WiFi, flat screen televisions with dvds, cable and movie channels, central sound systems, central vacuums, and central alarms.
