Truly a Dream Come True! A Rare Opportunity to Own Your Own Boutique Vineyard in One of Connecticut's Most Beautiful Settings! Nestled on eight picturesque acres, this charming Antique Cape offers an extraordinary combination of privacy, character, and breathtaking natural beauty. Home to Sunset Hill Vineyard, the property is surrounded by lush grapevines, rolling hills, and peaceful countryside views, creating a truly idyllic New England retreat. Two spacious bedrooms and a full bath complete the first floor. Two separate staircases, accessible from the kitchen and living room, lead to the second level. Upstairs, the primary suite offers sweeping views of the property, a private full bath, and a dressing closet. An additional generously sized room provides flexible space for a fourth bedroom, music room, or den, with another full bath nearby. A detached two-car garage includes a spacious workshop and a wonderful one-bedroom apartment complete with a full kitchen and living room, ideal for guests, extended stays, or caretaker accommodations. The established vineyard, (which is part of the CT wine trail!) features a barn and winemaking equipment, offering an exciting opportunity to continue or reimagine a boutique winery in an exceptional setting. Despite its secluded atmosphere, the property is just minutes from Hamburg Cove, the yacht club, Route 95, and the charming village of Essex. Enjoy nearby beaches, boating, swimming, golf, farmers markets, and the beloved Hamburg Fair. A picturesque spot along the cove offers the perfect place to relax, watch the sailboats pass, and enjoy a refreshing swim. With a little love and thoughtful care, this truly special property offers remarkable potential. Whether envisioned as a private country retreat, a multigenerational residence, or a boutique vineyard, Sunset Hill presents a rare opportunity to create something extraordinary in the heart of Connecticut's beautiful countryside.
