About This Home
As of April 2020History meets modern luxury! Incredible opportunity to reside in an important piece of Westport's history. This stately Federal Period/Greek Revival Style home built in 1810 was awarded the 2016 Westport Historical Society Preservation Award. With a nod towards the past and a view towards the future, the current owners have scrupulously restored The Alva Finch House to it's wondrous splendor, juxtaposing it's heritage with cutting edge design elements coveted in modern day new construction. Generous gracious 9' ceilings throughout the main level, lovingly re-finished wide plank original floors, and seven fireplaces are enhanced by new kitchen and vaulted ceiling family room expansion. New bathrooms, mudroom, and laundry room all with heated floors, new roof, electric, plumbing, furnace, and central air are just a sample of the many upgrades. There are three distinct outdoor living spaces with views of the rolling 2 acre grounds highlighted by a rustic barn, work shop, and potting shed. Once owned by renowned architect, Frazier Peters, the barn is one of the first examples of Peters' stone work. Savor this artifact of New England ancestry while basking in the comfort of state of the art amenities. Also available with an additional adjacent 2 acre parcel at 59 Red Coat Rd MLS # 170167661 - PLEASE NOTE - Although a beautiful antique with many local legends, future renovations/additions to this home are not bound by anything other than normal zoning regulations.
