Lakeridge Farm is a charming and historic country estate. Tasteful and elegant additions have created welcoming and wonderful entertaining spaces. A graciously proportioned living room with original fireplace and paneling evokes an earlier time. A formal dining room with an arched ceiling has long views to Thousand Acre Lake. An informal dining space has hand-painted murals depicting the property that grace all four walls. Just off the formal living room is a more casual space with cathedral ceilings that is a perfect gathering spot for family and for entertaining. A large screened porch overlooks magnificently established perennial gardens and massive stone walls. Beautifully manicured fields and light woods lead to a stone-surrounded gunite pool and onward to the tennis courts.

A post and beam barn on approximately 25 acres is across from the main house on 75 acres. These twenty five acres have frontage for fishing and paddling on Thousand Acre Lake.

Also included in the offering is Frog Cottage, a perfectly appointed two bedroom guest cottage overlooking a wildlife preserve. This ever so charming cottage is light and bright with open living spaces, first floor master bedroom, a fantastic screened porch and a one car garage.

The total property encompasses nearly 200 acres in rural Southfield — an ideal mixture of woodlands, uplands, meadows, fields and beautiful wetlands and water frontage. Minutes from Norfolk, CT and the Southfield Store.
