About This Home

As of June 2024

This Pre Revolutionary War home is one of the oldest estates in Sheffield (1774) It has been expanded over the years to 6000 sqft. There is also a very charming carriage house on the property as well. This magical property has tons of potential. Zoned mixed use, this home consists of 6 bedrooms, 8 fireplaces with 20 rooms. The lower level was recently opened up to expose the brickwork and post & beam framing. Whether it continues as a single-family home or a business will be the decision of the next owners. The house sits far back from the road on 4.4 acres. It is perched above the Housatonic River with gorgeous stone walls, terraced gardens and frontage on the river. A charming, covered bridge sits practically in the corner of the property. A boat launch is just behind the house as well.
