Perched on the crest of a plateau overlooking panoramic, protected views, West Wind Hill, a bespoke country estate on 389 plus acres, straddles Kent, CT and Amenia, NY. Experience this truly magnificent classic stone and shingle manor house sited perfectly to experience lush sunsets and fairytale mists with the upmost in privacy. Only eight minutes from the center of Kent and less than two hours from New York City, access is via a private gated road that winds through trees, past old stonewalls with glimpses of open meadow and a serene pond.
Spacious rooms perfect for entertaining include a large great room with a soaring peaked ceiling and a 20' stone fireplace, a sun-filled formal dining room with three exposures and a huge chef's kitchen with a massive stone fireplace and adjoining catering kitchen, a marble paneled powder room and mud room. Beautiful reclaimed chestnut floors, exquisite detailing and numerous banks of windows and French doors make this an unparalleled home.
The primary bedroom suite which includes a paneled library, separate office workspace and large bathroom and dressing areas--is located on the first floor in a private wing of the house. Of course, there is a billiard room, complete with mini-kitchen and bar, full bath and adjoining guest bedroom/office area. A second-floor, primary-sized guest room has a beautiful bath with soaking tub and deck that faces the amazing mountain views. Two bedroom suites with ensuite bathrooms, a charming peaked bedroom and a well-appointed office area complete this floor.
The extensive and recently renovated lower level contains a media room with 9' screen, half bath, wine tasting room and wine cellar with adjoining prep kitchen for large gatherings. In addition, there is a sunny laundry room, craft room and gym with ground level access.
Beautiful stone steps lead down to a stunning natural stone pool and a tennis court. There is also a two-story pool house with spiral staircase, full kitchen and full bath. The expansive two building maintenance court also contains a pumping system for irrigating the lawns and gardens.
