Whispering Glen Farm. Bring this grand lady back to her original beauty! 101 Obtuse Hill Road in Brookfield is a rare find. Set on 5 level acres, just minutes from I-84 and shopping in Brookfield and Danbury on one side, and Lake Lillinonah on the other. This home would make a perfect Gentleman's Farm!

 

The house is a large center hall colonial with many original features and charm. Entering through the front door leads you to a large reception room with a unique fireplace, a bay window with a window seat and a french door leading outside. The reception room is open to both the formal dining room and the ample sized living room, complete with a stone fireplace. There is also a unique staircase, double sided from the front of the house with a single set of stairs at the back. A 3 season sun room at the rear of the house is just off the living room, overlooking the back yard.

 

The kitchen is a wonderful county style eat in kitchen, plenty of space to cook or eat in, and will quickly become a favorite room in the house. There are two pantries, with the laundry area located in the larger pantry.

 

Upstairs are 5 generous sized bedrooms and two full baths.  A full sized walk up attic with a cedar closet is perfect for storage. 

 

The property also has a one bedroom guest cottage which can be used as a rental.  There is a great barn with three levels. The lower level was once used to milk cows, the main level is perfect for storage or a work room and includes a one car garage, and the upper level was used for hay storage. Towards the back of the property is a pond, complete with bull frogs, plus a stream runs behind the property.

 

If there isn't enough to keep you busy, the house is just a minute or two from Lake Lillinonah and the boat ramp. 

 

A bit of history about 101 Obtuse Hill Road in Brookfield Connecticut. About 70 years ago the family of the current owner found this great home and fell in love. This was the perfect retreat from a busy lifestyle for the V.P. of the F.W. Worthworth Company. During wartime they grew a Victory Garden that fed locals with fresh produce. It has been well loved by family and friends alike over the years. Rumor has it that part of the home actually dates back to the 1700's, but no one is quite sure.

 

It is now time for someone new to breath new life into this fabulous home and property. Check out the photos and give us a call at 860.946.0686 for a private showing of 101 Obtuse Hill Road in Brookfield, CT.
