Overview

Built in 1920, just after the Victorian era, this proud farmhouse has sheltered and nurtured the same family for more than 40 yrs. Rich period details remain beautifully intact, including bullseye+dentil molding, hardwood floors, high ceilings, carved wood paneling, and two covered porches. Thoughtful updates have enhanced the home while honoring its original spirit, evolving gracefully with the owners' needs. The intimate living room and library with built-in bookcases are at the core of the original house and lead to a well-appointed kitchen featuring a wood burning stove, central island and generous dining alcove.The tiled mudroom with laundry, pantry and command-center outpost add practicality and ease to daily living. The family room addition, with its generous scale and glorious fireplace, invites gatherings around the long pine table for conversation and relaxed entertaining. Upstairs, the second floor offers a spacious primary bedroom with fireplace, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and an office or nursery. Outside, the grounds are framed by classic barn-red outbuildings, mature trees, brick patios, stone walls, and established gardens, creating exceptional privacy at the end of the drive. Ideally located near Silvermine, the property is equidistant to both the Merritt Pkwy and the CT Tpke, with GrayBarns Mercantile and Tavern just two miles away. Filled with warmth, flexibility, and timeless character, this is a home that will be truly difficult to leave!
