The Rye House
This one of a kind English Country Estate sits on a private 210± acre site with magnificent views to the south. Built in 1908 and designed by noted
architect Wilson Eyre, the Rye House features many unique architectural treasures including; extensive hand carved chestnut wood paneling, hand
carved limestone fireplaces, a hand carved marble stairway and 14 ft. ceilings with exquisite plaster details. Step back in time as you pass thru the
gated entrance. A luxurious, romantic setting, perfect for entertaining. The main house includes 18 rooms and offers 10,000 sq.ft. of living space.
The house exterior is completely stone, with a classic stucco finish. The graduated slate roof and hand-made copper gutters communicate the
grandeur of the house and are amplified by the antique, hand carved elements of the house, such as the original window and door hardware and
carved wooden shutters. The Rye House offers six main bedrooms, six full baths and three half-baths. The third floor includes an additional bedroom
and bath. In addition, there is a private four bedroom guest wing with a full bath. Four fireplaces on the first floor and five fireplaces on the second
floor. Stunning oak and fir floors are throughout the home. A security system and gated entrance service the residence. The estate also includes a
new 75’ x 35’ pool with adjoining hot tub, tennis court, garden house, detached four car garage and custom built play structure. The tennis court
features the original stone pillars and stone walls surrounding it. The architect, Wilson Eyre, was also a noted landscape architect. He designed a
walkway of stone pillars, covered with a grape arbor, under which one could walk from the Main House to the Garden House. Along that walkway
there are three garden rooms that open to a stone walled grass pasture with original carved wooden gates. The grounds include priceless specimen
trees such as a Japanese Pagoda Tree, magnificent Copper Beeches, Magnolias and a flowering Wisteria. The 210± acre private estate offers breathtaking
views and some fantastic trails for hiking, biking, riding, ATV’s, etc. Bantam Lake and Lake Waramaug are within close proximity, offering world
class scenery for biking and boating.
