Land with Home for Lease in Redding, Connecticut
240 Umpawaug Rd, Redding, CT 06896
Welcome to the Charles Ives House (ca. 1913), an iconic 18-acre West Redding estate where the famed modernist composer lived and composed. Now available for a 1-year lease, fully furnished. This expertly restored Arts and Crafts masterpiece flawlessly blends modern luxury with rich historic integrity. The breathtaking great room features double-height beamed ceilings, an original paned picture window, and unique musical-staff staircase balusters. A country-chic chef's kitchen features premium appliances (La Cornue, Miele, Bosch) and a vintage-tiled fireplace. Work from the original music studio where Ives composed, or retreat to a primary suite with panoramic views and a marble bath. The park-like acreage offers unparalleled amenities: a 1BR guest cottage (ca. 1900), a heated Gunite infinity pool/spa, and a tennis court. A mini-resort in the summer, a cozy, festive haven in the Fall and a wonderland in the Winter. A true once-in-a-lifetime country oasis.
