This unique Antique Colonial tells the story of bringing the past into the present. The home is filled with character, from its wooden floors to its original stone fireplaces. The rooms invite you in, presenting a blend of old and new, which soothes and welcomes. Located five minutes from the center of New Canaan, the house sits on a beautiful lawn that is flanked by woods. It offers a unique blend of privacy and convenience. The original structure, built in the 1830s, opens to a warm foyer lined with bookshelves. On one side, you will find a cozy living room that centers around a large fireplace, which was once used for cooking (ovens are intact!). On the other side is a family room that includes a large screen television and the most comfortable couch. A newly renovated sunroom looks out over a patio surrounded by a garden of daisies and black-eyed susans. It flows into the updated kitchen, which is bright and open, complete with a dining area and roaring fireplace. Two sets of stairs lead to four bedrooms and three newly renovated baths. Facing the house is a newly built two-car garage with a heated second floor ideal for a playroom, workroom, or studio and wired for cable. When you open the front door, you will immediately feel the history and charm of this wonderful home.
