About This Home

Nestled on 8.2 acres in the scenic Sandy Hook neighborhood of Newtown, Connecticut, this exceptional equestrian estate blends historic charm with modern innovation. Built in 1825, the 2,174 sq. ft. antique colonial home offers four bedrooms and three bathrooms, thoughtfully updated to preserve its classic character while enhancing comfort and efficiency. The main residence features wide board hardwood floors, original wood beams, and two wood-burning fireplaces. Upgraded, double-paned energy-efficient windows showcase views of rolling fields and a working farm. Recent updates include mini-split heating and cooling, a new septic system, well pump with UV purifier, and basement waterproofing. The renovated kitchen blends modern conveniences with New England charm, offering both functionality and appeal. The estate boasts income-producing gardens and a thriving orchard with over seventy varieties of fruit trees. A four-season greenhouse with heating, electricity, and irrigation supports year-round cultivation. Equestrians will appreciate the large barn with a six-stall stable (two stalls with turnout paddocks), tack room, locker room, and ample storage. Above the barn, a renovated one-bedroom apartment offers guest accommodations, rental income, or an on-site caretaker's residence. A newly installed solar power system reduces energy costs, while cedar post fencing enhances security. This property is a rare blend of history, innovation, and natural beauty.
