Set back from the street and introduced by a brick entry with space to sit and unwind, this expansive, first-time-offered Colonial reflects a level of craftsmanship and scale rarely found. Built by its original owners, the home offers over 5,000 square feet with a layout suited for both everyday living and entertaining. Inside, hardwood floors, Andersen windows and doors, and a well-proportioned layout connect the formal and informal spaces. A central foyer leads to a living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a dining room with built-ins. The oversized eat-in kitchen features vaulted, wood-beamed ceilings, a brick fireplace, center island, and a generous dining area with an interior balcony above. The adjacent sunroom, with skylights and exposed beams, opens through sliding doors to a deck overlooking the backyard with an above-ground pool and shed. The family room, anchored by a gas fireplace and coffered wood-beamed ceiling, offers a flexible space for gathering or recreation. Upstairs, you'll find a primary suite with en-suite bath, three additional bedrooms with a renovated hall bath, and a separate private suite on the other side of the home with built-ins, a walk-in closet, and a full bath with heated floors. A vaulted upper landing with cedar detailing and an interior overlook into the kitchen adds architectural interest and a sense of openness. A rare opportunity to personalize a home of this scale and quality, offered for the very first time.

Putney, located between Paradise Green and the Housatonic River, is a residential and industrial Stratford neighborhood with a rail corridor and low-slung commercial strips. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Stratford Station area, where commuters, small storefronts, and steady train traffic set the daily rhythm. Historic Stratford’s campus and galleries act as a cultural anchor, while Two Roads Brewing Company and Dockside Brewery add a local, after-hours pulse. Streets mix older capes and colonials with mid-century splits, backed by warehouse blocks closer to the tracks. River edges and nearby greenspaces shape a grounded, outdoors-adjacent feel without leaving town.
