As sweet as the name sounds this property is 5.6 acres of unspoiled land in the middle of the 119 acre Honey Hill Nature Preserve. Less than 90 min from Manhattan, the Honey Hill land is a unique opportunity when it comes to privacy, woodland pedigree and a truly idyllic retreat. The developers just built a new access road that winds through the woods to the parcel - Lot A is 5.6 of 9.71 acres that can also be sold whole.The new private road/drive is at the end of a country lane, lined w/ New England stone walls, historic estates and farm land. Notable history includes Gene. Benedict Arnold and CT militia pursuing 2K British troops through the woods & Academy/Emmy/Tony winning actor Christopher Plummer owning acreage abutting the preserve for more than 30 years. Between the "neighborhood" and the nature preserve enveloping the property, let your imagination run and build a home or homes w/ the amenities your hear desires pool, tennis, accessory buildings for office, studio, or guests homes that will serve as a sanctuary for generations. Wilton is full of natural beauty with hiking, biking, kayaking and cross country skiing among outdoor activities enjoyed. The small town spirit is alive with small shops and celebrations & there is easy connection to the surrounding towns of varying flavor: New Canaan, Westport, Ridgefield are within minutes & while NYC will feel a world away its really just a quick trip via car or train!
