Step into a remarkable piece of American history & welcome to Egglington Hall (c. 1794), an extraordinary estate anchored by a beautifully restored Federalist-style Main House set on a sweeping, landscaped expansive corner lot near downtown Milford and recognized on the National Register of Historic Places. Designed for refined living and exceptional versatility, this home features two spacious owner’s suites—one on the main level (originally designed as a formal dining room) and another on the second floor—offering an ideal blend of luxury, privacy, and flexibility to suit your lifestyle. This 5,500-square-foot residence offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and multiple fireplaces, blending historic elegance with modern comfort. The chef’s kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, gas range, brick warming drawer, center island, morning room, and a wet/coffee bar with separate ice maker. A stately circular driveway and expansive front lawn create a grand first impression, while inside, soaring 10-foot ceilings and a dramatic three-story staircase set the tone. Upstairs, a magnificent primary suite showcases painted wood floors, a fireplace, and a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, oversized step-in shower, dual vanities, and a second fireplace, along with an additional bedroom, full guest bath, and balcony overlooking the front grounds. The third floor offers a spacious third & fourth bedroom or flexible living space. Looking outdoors, sliding doors open to a rear brick patio with koi pond, lush gardens, covered patio, outdoor shower, and a screened kasbah-style dining area with ambient lighting. An above-ground pool with raised deck enhances the resort-like setting, while a separate pool house—partially finished with concrete flooring below and engineered wood above—offers potential as an accessory dwelling unit with space for a future kitchen and bath, which offers additional living, entertaining or studio space. Solar panels add energy efficiency to this rare offering, presenting exceptional versatility as a multi-generational home, event venue, vacation rental, or investment opportunity—an iconic estate ready to begin its next chapter.
