What's special
Known as the historic “Alger Mansion,” this remarkable 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath Federal Colonial blends timeless architecture with modern updates on a picturesque 2.9-acre setting complete with a meandering stream. Built in 1872, this Richfield treasure showcases original millwork, sandstone lintels, copper gutters and downspouts, gorgeous hardwood floors, and soaring 10-foot ceilings throughout. The main level offers a cozy family room, formal dining room, and private office highlighted by exposed brick and a stunning marble fireplace. The charming kitchen features custom maple cabinetry, butcher block countertops, a Thermador range, a beautiful wood ceiling, and a unique tiled fireplace. An adorable Dutch door opens to the stone patio and enchanting brick pizza oven topped with a slate roof—perfect for entertaining. First-floor laundry and a half bath complete the main level. A floating wood staircase leads to the second floor, featuring four spacious bedrooms and two full baths, including a beautifully renovated primary bath. Recent updates include a new septic system (2022). Outside, enjoy the detached 2-car garage, pea gravel driveway with turnaround, large garden area, and mature landscape featuring viburnum, bleeding hearts, pear trees, and more. A rare opportunity to own one of Richfield’s most cherished historic homes.
