You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Large, Sunny 4 Bedroom Home Sleeps 8 and 1 minute to Five Fabulous Restaurants

My clean and sanitized home is available for longer stays. Please contact me for more details. My home has all the amenities for your perfect family/friends getaway. It's one that you'll want to return to and stay longer. This antique and sculpture filled, light-splashed two story 4 bedroom / 2.5 bath home on Connecticut's Antique Trail has big indoor and outdoor lounging areas on a beautifully landscaped one acre garden setting just three minutes from Woodbury's town center - "Connecticut's Most Charming Small Town!"

This historic district home has been enlarged and updated. It has been properly prepared for you, with a minimum two day interval between guests. Its been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected following guidelines based on recommendations from the CDC.

Comfortably sleeping a maximum of eight guests, this rambling 2,800 sq. ft home was a former bed and breakfast property and has upped the level of care and comfort for a perfect friends or family getaway.

The ground floor includes: a big, airy Eat-in Kitchen with a Skylight (the full moon's light is my favorite); a large Dining area with seating for 8 persons with patio doors leading to the large three season porch at far end, more patio doors to the covered porch at the near end, and a cozy lounging area in a large bay windowed alcove overlooking the garden (It's hard to Twitter with all of the bird feeder activity goings on just outside the windows); a lounging Living Room with a second set of patio doors to the three season porch; a cheery half bathroom is near the front entrance; a ground floor Bedroom with a queen sized bed, patio doors to the private rear garden, a large walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom with a double sink and walk-in shower; and, a large capacity washer and dryer in the pantry off the kitchen.

The three bedrooms upstairs all have noise blocking window attachments, black out roman shades and red oak floors. The beds are super comfortable. The cotton linens, comforters and pillows are all soft and clean, laundered with free and clear detergent. There's a large bedroom with two twin bed,s Danish modern cabinetry and Japanese artworks. The twins may be converted into a king bed upon prior request. The other two bedrooms have queen sized beds. The upstairs bathroom is sunny and roomy with good lights and mirrors.

The Sky Light in the kitchen area makes getting up in the morning a good thing with fresh brewed coffee and the opened patio doors to the herb garden. Alternative eating spots include outside under the covered porch where you may have a leisurely enjoyed brunch party at the table that seats six or the adjoining three season room where inside the perfect afternoon light filled venue is ready for hosting afternoon drinks or evening cocktails as the setting sun may be dappled by the big daddy sugar maple outside.

Your Host lives in the attached garage/ air hangar which is a working artist's live/work studio with its own and separate road access, private entrance and parking.

The home has excellent high speed 303 Mbp WIFI internet accessible throughout the house. (It's Netgear's ORBI RBK50 Tri-band Whole Home Mesh WIFI System.) There is no cable service; but there are two Roku smart TVs to sign into your favorite streaming accounts.

The home has new energy rated, noise reducing Andersen windows and noise reducing attachments on the upstairs bedroom windows.

The home has central air conditioning.

There is a absolutely no smoking/vaping of any kind inside the home.

This home is one that you'll want to come back to often as some do.

Quaint home with garden views near top notch antiquing
Douglas is a fantastic host who is attentive, responsive, and went above and beyond with friendly hospitality. We rented for a weekend family bday celebration and had a lovely time grilling, playing board games, antiquing and relaxing. The home is comfortable and spacious for 8 people. Douglas has a wonderful collection of artwork as well. We hope to stay again in the future!

Beautiful getaway!
We had a wonderful time. Everything was “just so” - a gorgeous garden landscape and well appointed home with many thoughtful touches. The place is immaculate. It’s like staying at an 5 star inn , only better! Our groups loves to cook, so we enjoyed the cook’s dream kitchen. If you don’t cook, Woodbury is full of good restaurants at all price points. Enjoy!

Exceeded every expectation!
The house is immaculate, spacious and furnished and decorated with care and attention to detail. It is well appointed with anything you could need making it the perfect welcoming setting for a relaxing vacation. The huge kitchen island and the screened in sunroom were our favorite places to hang out - modern, light and with views of the gorgeous garden. Douglas was an extremely gracious and helpful host. We will definitely be back!

Perfect stay in Woodbury
It's a great vacation when the lodging actually adds to the experience, instead of just being a place to sleep at night. This house was in perfect condition and in a great location for anyone visiting Woodbury or Southbury. The house is filled with great art and interesting furniture and may be the cleanest house I've ever stayed in. We plan to be back in the future!

Wonderful Woodbury
This home is absolutely wonderful and is beautifully and functionally appointed, and immaculate. We had a great stay. Well stocked kitchen, beds extremely comfortable. Grounds are beautiful and interesting. At check-in, Douglas took us on a brief tour and was quickly responsive to any questions. Lots of great restaurants, shops and open country (but you don't need to leave the house if you just want to hang out). We were sorry to leave and we want to come back!

Home away from home.
This property has been the very best property I have ever stayed at using VRBO. It was large and spacious, spotlessly clean, and it was beautifully decorated. The kitchen was stocked with everything imaginable. The local area is as pretty as a postcard too. Plenty of lovely restaurants and antique shops to explore. Many in our party took a day long hike nearby too. When we visit family in CT again, this is where you will find us.

Relaxing Stay, Comfortable Home with Luxe Amenities
What a lovely time we had in this warm, comfortable and tasteful Connecticut retreat. The art, furnishings and interesting sculptures placed throughout the home were a wonderful bonus. I almost called it a farmhouse, however with the modern amenities such as large walk in showers, viking stove and the bright airy atmosphere, this is really a luxury stay. The house was immaculate, the mattresses and beddings were new and of high quality. The owner is attentive and available but also mindful of your privacy. Also very close to antique shopping, persian rugs, home decor and restaurants. This house is gem.

We wish we could have stayed longer. Douglas our host was very nice and readily available for anything we needed. His house was beautiful and the beds were comfortable. The shower in the downstairs bathroom was a wonderful retreat after a long flight from Seatac to Bradley Airport. The leather chair in the sitting room was my favorite. There are several unique touches throughout the house that give it character. We would stay with Douglas again.

Doesn't get better than this!
What a great weekend! Douglas was such a great host! The house was beautiful, comfortable, had all the amenities and was the perfect place for a girl's weekend get away! Great location, close to many shops and restaurants. Quaint little town. And there are walking trails through the woods just a bit up the street from the house. The pictures of the property are true to life! We spent time in each room with our favorite spot being the cozy alcove opposite the dining room table. There were 5 of us. We pulled up additional chairs to enjoy the sun shining through the windows,sharing conversation be it over morning coffee or afternoon happy hour. A couple of the girls brought their own pillows, but ended up using the ones on the beds because they were great pillows!! Beds very comfortable! Again, love, Love,loved it! Can't wait to go back! Thank you so much Douglas! It was so nice chatting with you and getting to know a little bit about you, the house and the area!!
