Reputed to be part of the Fairchild Farms per maps of Newtown from the early 1800's, step into yesteryear with all the pleasures of modern amenities. Enjoy all four seasons on two and two-thirds acres of expansive, level property. From the first buds of spring to the lush green lawns of summer to the vibrant fall colors and even into the snowfalls of winter, every time of the year brings new wonders to this property. Originally built in 1845 in a quieter and simpler time, the home has had many upgrades over the years while keeping the character and charm of yesteryear. A perfect example of this is the stone bench on the side of the home. The stones used to form this bench were once part of the stone walkway in front of the home. The current owners renovated the kitchen with its 6-burner gas Viking stove with grill, granite countertops, limestone backsplash, stainless steel appliances and country sink. The eating area has wainscoting and a chair rail. The large entryway has original hand-hewn beams and original wide plank flooring. The living room also has hand-hewn beams and boasts newer wide plank flooring and a large stone fireplace. Off the kitchen, you have a unique 2-compartment mudroom so you can store all of your sports equipment, fishing tackle, or any other gear you need for your outdoor activities. This room is heated and has exhaust for those especially sweaty sports excursions. With 7 rooms that could be used as bedrooms including a bedroom on the main level that is en suite and can be used as an in-law or au pair area AND a third floor primary bedroom suite with expansive views of the beautiful property, there is plenty of flexibility for any lifestyle. A 28-foot screened-in porch as well as a 500 square foot stone patio make outdoor entertaining as grand as any dinner or cocktail party could be in this classic antique home. In 2014, the current owners built the large 3-car detached garage with over 500 square feet of space (included in the total square footage perfect for an in-home office, yoga/pilates studio or anything else you can imagine. There is a 2-car detached garage as well. You can't ask for a more beautiful space to call home.
