Modern farmhouse character, flexible living space, and beautiful ridgeline views come together in The Ridgeview, a thoughtfully designed, to-be-built home in the highly desirable Chatham Lake neighborhood. Set among established upscale homes on spacious lots, this elevated property offers a peaceful natural setting with scenic views and a wonderful sense of privacy and openness. The exterior combines timeless New England architecture with modern farmhouse details, including cedar style vinyl shingles, prominent gables, black-trimmed windows, metal roofing accents, and an inviting covered front porch. Inside, 3,528 square feet of thoughtfully planned living space emphasizes natural light, architectural detail, and an easy connection between the home's primary living areas. At the heart of the main level is an open concept kitchen, dining, and great room designed for everyday living and entertaining. The custom kitchen is planned with a generous center island, abundant cabinetry, and walk-in pantry, opening directly to a spacious great room with a fireplace, coffered ceiling, and oversized doors leading to the rear patio. The adjoining dining area makes its own architectural statement with a cathedral ceiling and exposed beam detailing. The private first-floor primary suite offers the convenience of single-level living, complemented by a spacious bathroom and walk-in closet. **See below for more details** A well-appointed mudroom with built-ins, first-floor laundry, powder room, and direct access to the two-car garage add everyday functionality. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and substantial office and flex space. A large bonus area creates exciting potential for an in-law or guest suite, additional bedroom, family room, home office, or recreation space, providing valuable flexibility for multigenerational living or changing needs over time. Built by a seasoned local builder with more than 30 years of residential construction experience, The Ridgeview reflects a commitment to quality craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and attention to detail throughout. Residents enjoy access to a spring-fed lake ideal for swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, canoeing, ice skating, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water. Nearby hiking trails, Haddam Meadows State Park, and the Connecticut River boat launch provide even more opportunities to enjoy the outdoors, all approximately 30 minutes from Hartford, 40 minutes from New Haven, 20 minutes from the shoreline, and roughly two hours from New York City and Boston. **Renderings are for illustrative purposes, while photographs of previously completed homes are provided to showcase the builder's quality, craftsmanship, and design style.
