Property Description
A LIVEABLE ANTIQUE WITH SOUL. This iconic circa-1880 farmhouse in New Fairfield blends timeless character with the comfort of modern living. Sunlight pours through updated thermopane windows, illuminating wide board floors, open gathering spaces, and a welcoming country kitchen designed for slow mornings and lively evenings alike. A wraparound covered porch invites rocking chairs, summer storms, and quiet conversations, while the updated Trex deck and patio create the perfect backdrop for outdoor dining and weekend entertaining. Lovingly maintained, the home offers updated baths, newer appliances, roof 2009, a newer boiler, and the peace of mind that comes with thoughtful stewardship. Upstairs, three bedrooms are complemented by a flexible family room with Juliette balcony and attached office space-ideal for today's work-from-home lifestyle. Set on over an acre, the property balances open lawn for recreation with tucked-away spaces to relax and recharge. The extraordinary three-story barn and detached three-car garage open endless possibilities for hobbyists, collectors, artists, or contractors seeking room to create and store. Located on the New York border and moments from Candlewood Lake, with access to the town beach and docks, this is more than a home-it's a lifestyle rich in history, charm, and everyday beauty.
