About the Home

Sparkling jewel box in the center of Redding, the Wakeman Smith House is a masterful blend of historic charm and modern refinement. Originally built in 1780 and expanded in 1840 into a graceful Georgian Revival, this architectural gem sits on 1.4 tranquil, park-like acres surrounded by stone walls, mature trees, and professionally designed perennial gardens; all within one of Redding's most coveted neighborhoods. Inside, the home exudes understated elegance, featuring a serene Swedish color palette, custom millwork, built-ins, and timeless architectural details. Plenty of room to dream. Step outside to discover two slate patios, a hot tub overlooking the home's open field, bocce court, vegetable gardens, and a charming potting shed, all framed with privet hedges and boxwoods providing privacy while still in the heart of town. Why settle for the suburbs when you can have Town & Country living at its finest, all still within minutes of downtown Wilton, Ridgefield and Westport.
