About This Home
A rare two-lot offering, 950 Benham Road presents an exceptional opportunity for both homeowners and investors seeking privacy, flexibility, and long-term investment value. This unique package includes the main lot with the beautifully renovated Cape, set on nearly two wooded acres, plus an additional vacant one-acre lot. Together, the two lots create nearly three acres of exceptional privacy and natural beauty, all in a peaceful setting that feels tucked away while still being approximately five minutes from major commuting routes, including the Merritt/Wilbur Cross Pky. Together, the nearly three acres of exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and flexibility in a secluded setting feels like a true retreat. Inside, the home has been completely updated with high-end finishes while preserving its classic charm and character. Thoughtful improvements include refinished hardwood floors, fresh neutral finishes, updated doors and trim, recessed lighting, and a bright, timeless design throughout. The stunning new kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring white cabinetry, white quartzite countertops, a large center island, all-new stainless steel appliances, and a beautiful white herringbone backsplash that extends to the ceiling. The kitchen opens seamlessly to the dining area, creating an inviting space for entertaining. The family room offers warmth and character with a fireplace and a brand-new custom-built fireplace surround.
