Stunning, historic Main Street Colonial with pool! Don't miss the opportunity to own the Matthew Seamore (one of the original settlers of Ridgefield) home — original parcel 20! — and be a part of Ridgefield's fascinating Main Street steeped in history (Battle of Ridgefield -1777- took place in front of this home!) This 5 BR antique radiates charm and splendor as soon as you walk through the front door and the intricate architecture and design is evident throughout. It is actually two houses joined together, with both original staircases -- the south side being the original center chimney Colonial, built in 1760, and the north side is 1800 Greek Revival, relocated from the town green. The grand living and dining rooms both have 9 foot ceilings and gorgeous fireplaces. The library has beamed ceilings, fireplace and built-ins. The family room boasts a fourth fireplace and a full bar that could probably tell a few good stories! The kitchen is oversized with newer appliances. Upstairs there is a master bedroom with sitting area and an additional four bedrooms and three full baths. Perfect set-up for in-law or au pair suite. Not to be missed are the gorgeous and private grounds! Walk up attic. Level one acre of property, beautiful in-ground Gunite pool, privacy stone wall, patio, screened porch and barn. Just steps from Main Street but in your own private oasis! Interior and exterior freshly painted, new roof and oil tanks, and driveway recently paved. This home will not last!!
