One feels transformed upon entering this palace of tranquility and harmony. Arriving at the granite cobbled courtyard ringed by copper beech, you are greeted by the home's distinctive limestone and stucco facade highlighted by traditional and more modern Palladian details. The Villa presents with a cobblestone courtyard enclosed by a unique cooper beach hedge. The well-appointed foyer, with a marble fireplace, leads to a massive suspended double staircase open 30 feet to a barrel vaulted ceiling with second floor gallery supported by Tuscan columns. Villa Catarina is located in the heart of Litchfield County, straddling the towns of Cornwall and Goshen. This is an ideal location for the outdoor enthusiast, or anyone who enjoys a rural escape within 2 hours of New York City. With easy access to the Berkshires and Hudson Valley, as well as major metropolitan centers, Litchfield County is a peaceful enclave, offering a quintessential New England setting. © 2023 OneKey™ MLS, LLC
