About This Home

As of June 2020

Own a piece of Fairfield history! Tucked behind large arbors on one of Fairfield’s most prestigious streets is a 1725-built home & a barn with 2nd floor apartment. Inside, wide plank floorboards, beams, exposed brick & open spaces grace the home & elicit charm, character & the enchantment only an antique home can bring. The fireplace in the cozy, front-to-back living/dining room puts the “heart” in “hearth” & sets the tone for the rest of the home. The eat-in kitchen blends a modern & historic feel with SS appliances and country style cabinetry. Finishing off the first floor is the family room & powder room. Upstairs, the master bedroom with beams, a huge walk-in closet & master bathroom with soaking tub and walk-in shower will charm you. The 2nd bedroom & full bathroom can also be found on this floor; the 3rd bedroom awaits on the 3rd floor. The detached barn is ideal for a garage with a studio apt above. Multifunctional, it can be used as an au pair suite, in-law apartment, guest house, artist’s studio, or home office. Enjoy peaceful nights relaxing on your expansive lawn, playing fetch with the dog & watching wildlife on your two private acres with stunning foliage such as a yellow magnolia tree & a Weeping Katsura tree. This home offers the privacy of Greenfield Hill & is just minutes to downtown Fairfield, shops, schools, restaurants, highways, the train station & more. Enjoy country living in a one-of-a-kind home with rich history & love behind it.
