The Wilcox House, circa 1740, the oldest home in Canton, offers an opportunity to own a true piece of early New England history. Originally located along the banks of the Farmington River, the home was carefully relocated board by board to its present hillside setting, preserving its integrity while placing it on a modern, 1965 concrete foundation. This classic post and beam saltbox retains remarkable original detail, including hand-hewn chestnut beams, wide plank floors, forged nails, and period hardware. A stone fireplace and original corner cupboard anchor the main living area, while a more open flow enhances everyday livability. Well-suited for year-round living or weekend use, there is a great deal of local beauty and plenty of things to do throughout the seasons. Recent improvements include a newer roof, insulation, interior and exterior painting, and a rebuilt barn. Set on a terraced .8-acre parcel with perennial gardens, mature trees and original stone walls, the property also features an historic farm road and outdoor shower. The barn is framed and ready for finishing, offering many future possibilities. Located within the nationally recognized village of Collinsville, but set high on a hill, which feels private at the same time, the house is oriented to take advantage of vibrant, colorful sunsets. You'll enjoy the arts-driven community with shops, eateries, a seasonal farmers market, access to the rail trail and the Farmington River for kayaking, fishing, and more. A rare combination of authenticity, flexibility, and location, this home honors its past while allowing for comfortable living today, whether enjoyed year-round or as a retreat. For those drawn to historic properties, character, and a strong sense of place, this is a truly special offering.
