About the Home

Historic New Canaan Landmark... Experience the allure of New Canaan's rich past with this extraordinary estate, originally The Waring Farm established in 1863. Enclosed by timeless New England stone walls and adorned with climbing hydrangea, the 3-acre property exudes charm from the moment you arrive. This distinguished residence masterfully blends historic elegance with modern luxury across three impeccably finished floors. Soaring 9.5-foot ceilings in several rooms create an airy, sophisticated atmosphere throughout. The living room, with its inviting fireplace and dual sets of French doors, radiates warmth and refinement. Adjacent to it, a beautiful solarium/garden room opens up with brick inlaid floors and all-glass windows overlooking the backyard and pool area, creating a serene connection to the outdoors. A chic dining room, butler's pantry, eat-in kitchen and cozy den are seamlessly connected and open onto three gracious porches, perfect for effortless indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The grand primary suite offers a serene retreat with a private sitting room, complemented by five additional generously sized bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and one half bath-providing both comfort and versatility. The third floor presents a flexible space ideal for a home office, playroom, or studio, while the expansive lower level offers abundant storage options and a wine cellar to suit the most discerning collector.
