Discover a truly unique home nestled on over 1 acre and ideally located near top-rated schools, parks, the train and the vibrant New Canaan town center. A dramatic two-story foyer with vaulted ceilings sets the tone for the spacious and thoughtfully designed interior. The main level features a bright, step-down living/dining room with hw floors, cozy fireplace and striking 2-story greenhouse windows. A light-filled family room has sliders leading to a large deck that overlooks the spectacular backyard - perfect for relaxing. The kitchen with center island is open to the family room offering opportunity for seamless indoor entertaining. Just off the kitchen, you'll find a generous laundry/pantry room. Bedroom and full bath complete the main level. Upstairs, the private primary suite with fireplace, spacious walk-in closet, a large full bath with greenhouse windows, and a balcony with serene views of the property offers the ultimate escape. Two additional bedrooms with a full bath, and a flexible-use sitting area provide room for work, study, or play. A spiral staircase leads to a cozy loft lined with built-in bookshelves and access to additional storage. Large mudroom on the lower level connects the garage and the almost 2,000 sqft of unfinished space perfect for customizing. The backyard offers endless possibilities. Originally built in 1850 with major additions in 1979 and 1985, this one-of-a-kind home combines historic character with modern updates and abundant potential.
