Elegant 18th century home, known as the Resequie-Comstock house, is one of Wilton's well preserved historic landmarks. Much of the character of its mid-1700's heritage has been retained. The classic details and Colonial facade bring us back to another time. The ceilings are 9' high, and the large central chimney measures 12 x 12 feet at the foundation. Gleaming chestnut, oak and pine wide plank floors are throughout the home. Many of the 12/12 windows are original with their characteristic imperfect glass. The enormous fireplace with Beehive oven and 9' wide hearthstone warms the family in the Great Room. French doors open to a screened-in porch overlooking level grounds bordering 240 acres of watershed property. Two formal rooms offer elaborate moldings and are equally proportioned, large, and gracious for entertaining, each with a fireplace. The master provides a spacious retreat with fireplace, dressing room and full bath. Eat-in kitchen with picture window overlooks the post and beam barn with 3 bays, workshop and 2 lofts. The house is move-in condition. The beautiful level property is easy to maintain which borders scenic Ridgefield Rd. and Nod Hill Rd. You are 2 miles from charming Wilton Center, 5 miles from downtown Ridgefield, 6 miles from downtown New Canaan and 8 miles from downtown Westport. Easy access to I-95 and the Merritt Parkway and only minutes away from all of Wilton's wonderful schools. Truly a special opportunity to own a piece of history.
