About this property

Enjoy the serenity of the countryside at Pleasant Valley Trails - Home & Acres

Welcome to Pleasant Valley Trails. A rustic Mid-Century home on scenic private property overlooking pond. The home was built from the wood and stone taken from the property. Next to state hiking trails, winery, and pick-your-own farm, we are within 30 minutes drive to Bridgeport, Fairfield, New Haven and the Connecticut Shoreline. Trails for hiking & snowshoeing are onsite. This is an ideal spot for relaxing and watching wildlife.

Pleasant Valley Trails has 42 acres of fields and forest with blazed trails that connect to other trails in the White Hills area of Shelton. The pond attracts wild life which may be seen from the house.

The front door (white) is accessed by key which will be provided by lock box. Feel free to park near the front door for easy access.

The rental unit is the original house. It was built in 1952 and has approximately 1200 square feet of living space. The house was added onto in the mid 1960's and that area is used by the owner when in Shelton for business.

Away from it all

My husband and I go to a music festival about 20 minutes from this house. We enjoy the house almost as much as the festival. The house is charming and has a rich history. I feel like I’m visiting a house my Great grandparents built. It’s absolutely gorgeous. I love all the windows and rock fireplace. The view of the pond is an added plus. This is our second year, attending the festival, and being at the house. We hope to make it a tradition. 5 Stars hands down. I’d give it more if I could!

Secluded, quiet cabin

Old fashioned quaint cabin with hand made shelving and cabinetry. Very quiet, set in the woods overlooking a beautiful piece of land & pond. Don’t go alone… a bit spooky, but very nice. The place was very clean, but could use some work or updating. If you enjoy nature & a beautiful peaceful setting, this place is great.

Quaint and quiet

Home is located back from the road, very quiet. Lots of wildlife outside. Home was built in 1952, all hand made cabinets and lots of built ins. House was very clean. There had been a leak in the roof by the bathroom in the hallway that needs repair. Lots of space inside with a very large eat-in kitchen. Washer and dryer worked great. Easy access to Jones Family Farm and highway.

A piece of heaven ✨️

We came to Connecticut from California to look at colleges. I found this gem and couldn't resist its beautiful charm. The house is surrounded by beautiful tree-lined roads and a very serene view out the windows from the kitchen to the living area. There is a pond in which geese , turtles , and fish live. It was very comfortable and ideal if you appreciate nature and quiet surroundings. The only thing I would recommend is curtains in the living area. It truly was a memorable stay! The owner is very nice, easy to reach if needed. 👍👍🙌
