Najam tijekom akademske godine | Rujan–Lipanj | 8,500 USD/mjesec | Potpuno namješteno
Na kraju vijugave seoske ceste, gdje visoki borovi stoje kao tihi čuvari i sunčeva svjetlost filtrira kroz grane, otkriva se Bantam Barn—smješten visoko na brežuljku, potpuno skriven od pogleda. Ovaj izvanredni dugoročni najam spaja dušu staje iz 19. stoljeća s lakoćom i elegancijom modernog života, pružajući rijetku priliku za stanovanje u povijesti i udobnosti.
Pomno obnovljena i arhitektonski ponovno zamišljena, kuća sadrži drvo staje koje je ponovno obnovljeno, antikne ručno rezane grede i široke podove kroz cijeli prostor. Prirodne teksture kombiniraju se s čistim linijama i suvremenim završnim obradama, stvarajući interijere koji djeluju i prizemno i svjetlucavo.
Srce kuće je dramatična velika soba s visokim stropovima i kaminom od poligonalnog kamenja, okružena zidovima prozora koji oblikuju poglede na okolne šume. Moderne kuhinje su opremljene integriranim uređajima, dvostrukim pećnicama, indukcijskom pločom za kuhanje i ogromnim otokom—idealnim za svakodnevne rituale i zabavu. Iza toga, udubljeni dnevni boravak/TV prostor pruža ugodan, neformalan prostor za opuštanje.
Tlocrt uključuje četiri spavaće sobe i dvije i pol kupaonice. Glavna suite na prizemlju je privatno sklonište s garderobom i kupaonicom obloženom mramorom. Sve kupaonice su jedinstveno smještene unutar izvorne silose kuće, dodajući skulpturalni šarm i dozu maštovitosti svakodnevnim rutinama. Na vrhu silosa, loftovska kancelarija nudi mirno mjesto za rad od kuće ili kreativne aktivnosti.
Ispred, gotovo pet hektara travnjaka i šume pružaju mirnu, privatnu pozadinu, s blistavim bazenom za uživanje u kasnim ljetnim poslijepodnevima.
Smješten u srcu okruga Litchfield, Bantam Barn je idealno lociran za obitelji ili profesore koji traže blizinu najvažnijih neovisnih škola u regiji, uključujući The Hotchkiss School, Indian Mountain, Rumsey Hall, The Frederick Gunn School, The Kent School i druge. Samo nekoliko minuta od jezera Bantam, Arethusa Farm, White Memorial Conservation Center te trgovina i restorana Litchfield i New Preston, ovaj potpuno namješteni dom nudi mirnu, dizajnerski naprednu bazu za doživljavanje Litchfield Hills.

Academic-Year Rental | September–June | $8,500/month | Fully Furnished
At the end of a winding country drive, where tall pines rise like quiet sentinels and sunlight filters through branches, the Bantam Barn reveals itself—set high on a hill, completely hidden from view. This exceptional long-term rental blends the soul of a 19th-century barn with the ease and elegance of modern living, offering a rare opportunity to dwell in both history and comfort.
Thoughtfully restored and architecturally reimagined, the home features reclaimed barnwood, antique hand-hewn beams, and wide-plank floors throughout. Natural textures are paired with clean lines and contemporary finishes, creating interiors that feel both grounded and luminous.
The heart of the home is a dramatic great room with soaring ceilings and a fieldstone fireplace, surrounded by walls of windows that frame views of the surrounding woods. The sleek, modern kitchen is outfitted with integrated appliances, double ovens, an induction cooktop, and a massive island—ideal for both daily rituals and entertaining. Just beyond, a sunken den/TV room provides a cozy, informal space to unwind.
The layout includes four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. The ground-floor primary suite is a private retreat with a walk-in closet and a marble-clad ensuite bath. All bathrooms are uniquely housed within the home's original silo, adding sculptural charm and a sense of whimsy to everyday routines. At the top of the silo, a lofted office nook offers a peaceful spot for remote work or creative pursuits.
Outside, nearly five acres of lawn and forest provide a serene, private backdrop, with a sparkling inground pool for lingering late-summer afternoons.
Located in the heart of Litchfield County, the Bantam Barn is ideally situated for families or faculty seeking proximity to the region’s top independent schools, including The Hotchkiss School, Indian Mountain, Rumsey Hall, The Frederick Gunn School, The Kent School and more. Just minutes from Bantam Lake, Arethusa Farm, White Memorial Conservation Center, and the shops and restaurants of Litchfield and New Preston, this fully furnished home offers a peaceful, design-forward base from which to experience the Litchfield Hills. © 2025 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
