Set among mature trees just minutes from the center of Kent, this classic cottage pairs vintage character with an easy, comfortable layout. The main level centers on a living room with knotty pine paneling, exposed beams, and a brick fireplace. The kitchen offers counter seating and opens to a sunlit eating area lined with windows. Rounding out this level are a sitting area, currently used as an office, that opens to a covered deck, and a full bath with laundry. Upstairs, three bedrooms with hardwood floors and built-in eave storage share a full bath. Outside, a stone patio with a fire pit and garden beds make the most of the setting. The surrounding Litchfield Hills offer year-round recreation: the Appalachian Trail passes nearby, Mohawk Ski Area is a short drive away in Cornwall, and Kent's shops, galleries, and restaurants are close at hand.
