About This Home

As of August 2020

Located in the heart of Stratford's Historic District, this remodeled antique saltbox offers the absolute best of a bygone era with today's modern amenities. Just steps (literally 600 steps) to the Metro North station, fine dining in Stratford Center, and minutes to major highways, this lovely home offers elegant living, spacious, light-filled rooms and a private, fenced yard with a 12'x15' out building perfect for an artist's studio or private office. The remodeled kitchen features a large brick hearth with beehive oven and a dining area with french doors that open onto a terrace overlooking private lush gardens and mature trees. The living room, complete with built-ins, fireplace and beamed ceiling is the quintessential New England living area for family gatherings.
A spacious, formal dining room with fireplace, main level laundry room and half bath complete the first floor. The upper level boasts a master bedroom with private dressing room and custom closets, an additional bedroom with fireplace and remodeled, full bath. The third floor features a guest suite with full, remodeled bath, closets and attic storage. This space is currently being used as an office. This historic home was built by Lt. William Thompson who fought in the Battle of Ridgefield, April, 1777. Note: Living room and dining room fireplaces are wood burning. Kitchen and bedroom fireplaces are not functional. Home is listed on the National Registry of Historic Homes.
