When Jim Steinman passed in April of 2021, he left behind not only his incomparable body of musical and theatrical works, but also his beloved home in Ridgefield, CT where he lived for nearly 30 years. From the time Jim acquired the quaint country cottage originally located on the property, it became his personal sanctuary where he envisioned and built his masterful home and studio that served to inspire artistic creation and joyful entertaining. It was from this home that Jim collaborated with world acclaimed musicians and artists, composing on the very piano that is included in this once in a lifetime sale of Jims home and curated collections which have been left in situ. Jim took great pride in every object that you will see in his home, which served as the backdrop to his life and work. To honor Jims legacy, it is the estates intention to transfer this tangible body of work to the next custodian who will be enthralled by the transformative power of Jims home and art. Jim commissioned prestigious New England architect, Rob Bramhall, to execute his vision. Jim spent over $6M in the construction alone, and his divine collections are truly priceless (inquire for the Art Catalogue). The sum total of the individual components in this offering is believed to far exceed the list price, but the intention is to honor Jims legacy by keeping his sanctuary intact. Offers starting at $5,555,569. Please see the virtual tour and floor plans: https://www.seetheproperty.com/u/416690.
