About This Home

As of February 2026

This stunning Colonial sits proudly in a highly desirable New Fairfield neighborhood and has been lovingly maintained throughout by the original owner. A charming front porch warmly welcomes you into the home. Inside, the foyer opens to a spacious living room, perfect for gathering with guests, flowing seamlessly into the formal dining room and kitchen, complete with a built-in breakfast table for everyday meals. To the right of the foyer, the expansive family room stretches from front to back of the home and features a brick fireplace and sliders to the rear deck, making it the true heart of the home. The main level also includes a bright sunroom, convenient half bath, and a large home office with a separate entrance-ideal for remote work or a private workspace. Upstairs, you'll find a generous primary bedroom with an updated ensuite bathroom, along with three additional well-sized bedrooms, all featuring hardwood floors, and a full bathroom with tub/shower. Hardwood floors run throughout most of the home, with tile in the kitchen and bathrooms. The lower level offers a 2 car garage, and large, open basement with laundry area, abundant storage, and endless potential for future finished space. Outside, enjoy mature plantings that provide beauty and privacy, along with the rare luxury of your own private tennis court right in your backyard-an exceptional feature that truly sets this home apart.
