    Victorian character, beautifully updated interiors and a separate renovated cottage, all just steps from downtown New Canaan. Ideally situated near the train station, library, shops and restaurants, 216 Main Street offers an exceptional combination of space, privacy and convenience. The main residence has been thoughtfully updated and expanded, preserving its architectural charm while creating inviting spaces for modern living. A welcoming front porch leads to gracious living and dining rooms, while the well-appointed kitchen features a Sub-Zero refrigerator and JennAir range. An adjoining family room brings the living spaces together, with room to gather, entertain and unwind. A main-level bedroom and full bath provide flexibility for guests or a private home office. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite features a walk-in closet, a second closet and a beautifully renovated bath with a Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms offer abundant natural light, complemented by distinctive spaces including a charming turret room, sitting area and reading nook. The detached cottage is a standout: approximately 1,140 square feet of fully renovated living space, with high ceilings, beautiful wood floors, an expansive living room, kitchenette, private bedroom and additional loft space. Its generous proportions offer possibilities well beyond a typical guest cottage, whether for extended stays, a dedicated work space or a retreat separate from the main house. With two beautifully finished residences in one walkable downtown setting, 216 Main Street offers the room to spread out and the convenience of having New Canaan's best-loved destinations close at hand. 2 year lease required Landlord responsible for landscaping maintenance
