515 Cedar Ridge Drive

Custom Catarino-built French Country residence, located on a cul-de-sac in an enclave of fine homes, seamlessly blends rustic charm with modern elegance. Situated high on a knoll to capture unparalleled views of Hartford skyline and the ridges beyond, this 5022 sq ft home, built in 2016, offers a multitude of warm, welcoming spaces, each designed to perfection. The Kitchen and Great Room create an immediate impact - literally take your breath away - with extraordinary architectural design that offer both scale and comfort. A stove hood crafted from natural stone anchors the space, complemented by beams of reclaimed wood overhead, a massive center island with seating for six, and a windowed sitting alcove that calls you to relax with a morning coffee. In the two-story Great Room, oversized custom Andersen windows flood the space with natural light, while a stone gas fireplace adds warmth and a striking focal point. Vibrant sunsets transform the dining room many evenings, casting the space in warm light and color.
