About 71 Picketts Ridge Rd

Private, Tree-Lined Escape with Endless Possibilities - 71 Picketts Ridge, Redding, CT...Tucked away on one of Redding's most scenic roads, 71 Picketts Ridge offers a rare opportunity to own a peaceful, oversized lot surrounded by mature trees and natural beauty. Whether you're seeking a weekend escape, a full-time residence, or the perfect spot to build your dream home, this property is full of potential.
