I purchased this property because I am a nature lover and I enjoy the peace and solitude found on this 2 1/2 acre property, with its tree laden forest views, located in the rustic and rural area of Sherman. Escape to your own private Mindfulness Sanctuary! We are on the CT Wine Trail - Come be our guests & go hiking, fishing, swimming, wine tasting, antiquing, flea marketing; or see a play at Sherman playhouse, visit Kent Falls and stroll their quaint Main Street, or explore the many nature sanctuaries all within 30 minutes from our cottage.
