This distinguished 1880s Victorian residence in the heart of Lakeville village offers a masterful blend of period craftsmanship and contemporary luxury on 2.5 private acres. Located moments from both the town green and Lakeville Lake, this meticulously restored 5-bedroom estate presents refined living in one of Litchfield County’s most sought-after locations.

The welcoming wrap-around covered porch leads to an elegant entry hall featuring a striking curved staircase. Grand proportions define the formal rooms, where original wood-burning fireplaces, soaring ceilings, and oversized windows create an atmosphere of timeless sophistication. The gourmet kitchen showcases top-tier stainless appliances, substantial island, and bespoke wood cabinetry, with a bright dining area flowing to the generous rear deck overlooking the grounds.

The second floor features a bright primary suite with an en-suite bath, three additional bedrooms, a dedicated home office, and a luxurious bathroom that boasts custom marble, Waterworks fixtures, and radiant heat flooring. A stylish laundry room and thoughtful storage complete this level. The third floor provides a secluded guest retreat with original wood floors, flexible studio space, and cedar-lined storage.

The property’s exceptional amenities include a versatile two-story barn with a basement—ideal for studio, workshop, or recreational pursuits—plus a detached one-car garage. The Serene grounds frame this village estate, offering the rare combination of in-town convenience with country property privacy just steps from Lakeville’s shops, restaurants, and recreational amenities.
