Overview of The House
After being unavailable as a vacation rental for 6 years we're happy to say Chestnut Ridge House is back for your enjoyment!
And this house is definitely a "Rambler"... with so many unique spaces to create memories. We have indoor and outdoor areas with a welcoming feel for families, friends, staycations, reunions, work shops.
The kitchen is well stocked, the washrooms are contemporary and the beds comfy.
The Rooms
The Great Room with expansive windows overlooking the woodsy acre is perfect for hanging out & just being together. Turn on the vinyl or the TV. It feels like a tree house day or night!
Garden Room
Indulge in a pre-dinner cocktail in the relaxing sun-filled Garden Room with its palmy decor and mix of MCM & white wicker furnishings. The chaise is ideal for lounging. The perfect spot to catch that late afternoon sun!
The Library
Be sure to make time for a game of chess or backgammon in the Library. It's refined but laid-back & you won't want to leave! Hideaway with a book or hang out together.
Kitchen
It's an ideal layout and it's well stocked. Plenty of dishes, pots, cutlery and even a charming Coffee & Tea station.
Now your biggest decision will be where to eat - great room, deck or cozy breakfast nook!
