About the Home

Welcome to Landsmith House, one of the most distinguished and recognizable homes in Danbury. Built by Patrick McFarland in 1881, it has remained in the same family since its construction and its peaceful gardens and timeless charm make it a sanctuary amidst the bustle of downtown Danbury. Prepare to be stunned by its exquisite details before even entering this Greek Revival Colonial, from the dramatic pillars that grace the front, to the expansive perennial gardens in back, with meandering stone pathways passing by a gorgeous pergola, a meditation space and a fantastic outdoor pavilion with lighting, perfect for al fresco dining. A dramatic foyer with two story Palladian window greets you as you enter and there are plenty of spaces for entertaining and relaxing inside with a cozy sunroom, eat-in kitchen, music room, two formal dining rooms, plus a living room and full bath on the main level. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms, another full bathroom, plus a spacious Great Room with vaulted ceiling and loft. Hardwood flooring, custom moldings, intricate built-ins, original hardware and details throughout. There is a detached garage with electric car charging and plenty of parking in the large paved driveway. Ideally located in Danbury's most coveted historic neighborhood, just steps to Deer Hill Ave, Tarrywile Park, Rogers Park, shopping, restaurants and schools. Meticulously updated and cared for over the years--An artist, antique collector or gardener's dream home!
