Description

Located on one of the most prominent roads in the center of the Fairfield's historic district this thoroughly re-styled vintage home beckons us from the white picket fence and expansive front porch, to the landscaped pool, fire pit and alfresco dining areas. A casually sophisticated fusion of indoor and outdoor; privacy and walkability; old and new, makes this iconic colonial hard to forget. Morning light brightens the striking white kitchen with its quartz topped island and brick floor to ceiling...Located on one of the most prominent roads in the center of the Fairfield's historic district this thoroughly re-styled vintage home beckons us from the white picket fence and expansive front porch, to the landscaped pool, fire pit and alfresco dining areas.
