Step inside a storybook antique, where time slows and history whispers through every timber. Circa 1740, this North Stamford gem feels less like a house and more like a chapter from New England's past. Wide-plank 18th-century floors polished by generations of footsteps, chestnut beams glowing in the one-of-a-kind kitchen's vaulted ceiling, handcrafted built-ins that balance charm and practicality, and a fieldstone wood-burning fireplace that has warmed countless winters - these are just a few of the enchanting details that make this home unique & special. Three en-suite bedrooms, including one on the main floor, along with thoughtful updates that honor the home's timeless spirit. Outside, take in the poetic landscape: ancient trees, sculptural boulders, and a weathered three-story red barn (~750 SF) perched on a hill. For the next thoughtful steward of this property, endless possibilities unfold. Perfectly positioned between the convenience of Downtown Stamford and the charm of Bedford and Pound Ridge, with a beloved country market just down the road, this is a home not just to be lived in, but to be cherished.
Barn is ~ 750SF and will be sold as-is, electric available but not connected. City water hookup available.
