Steeped in history and natural beauty, the Charles Ives House (ca. 1913) is a masterfully restored 18-acre West Redding summer retreat where the famed modernist composer lived and created his signature works. Designed and built by Ives himself, this iconic Arts and Crafts estate seamlessly pairs vintage authenticity with ultra-luxury modern updates. Inside, original architectural integrity shines. The spectacular great room features a double-height wood-beamed ceiling, a stunning original paned picture window, and custom staircase balusters subtly crafted to resemble musical staff notes. A country-chic chef's kitchen boasts elite appliances (La Cornue, Miele, Bosch), a cozy built-in banquette, and a fireplace inset with original vintage tile. The second-level primary suite offers panoramic views of the lush, pastoral grounds, a luxurious marble bath, and an expansive walk-in closet. Retain your own inspiration in the original music studio/office where Ives composed, complete with untouched original hardwood floors. The extraordinary 18-acre grounds double as a private resort, featuring a charming 1BR guest cottage (ca. 1900), a heated Gunite infinity-edge pool and spa, a tennis court, and a classic century-old timber frame barn with a new foundation and roof. Effortlessly sophisticated, enchantingly rustic, a rare opportunity and an absolute masterpiece of living history.
