Property Description
A truly one-of-a-kind North Stamford retreat, this extraordinary 4-bedroom Carriage House seamlessly blends centuries of history with modern comfort. Set on 1.33 beautifully level acres, the home began as an 18th-century carriage house and has been thoughtfully expanded to incorporate the original barn and speakeasy, creating a residence unlike any other. Every space has been carefully renovated to preserve its historic character while offering today's amenities. The welcoming foyer features radiant-heated bluestone floors and an exposed stone wall that immediately showcases the home's timeless appeal. Once the original barn, the spacious eat-in kitchen boasts soaring beamed ceilings, wide-plank hardwood floors, granite countertops, a wine refrigerator, and French doors opening to the outdoor terrace. Original 1700s barn doors have been repurposed for the pantry and wine refrigerator, adding authentic architectural detail. The inviting family room offers another striking stone wall, a wet bar, custom built-in media cabinetry, and French doors that bring the outdoors in. The formal living and dining room is anchored by a fireplace and enhanced by exquisite stained-glass windows imported from England, while the adjoining library or office features custom built-ins, creating the perfect space to work or unwind. A powder room, mudroom, and separate laundry room with a private entrance complete the main level.
