About This Home
THE OGDEN HOUSE. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history. This 1875 historic property set on 1.67 private, well landscaped acres offers the perfect blend of country tranquility and convenience. Situated just four miles from New Canaan's vibrant downtown, this unique property puts you moments away from the town's celebrated, top-ranked schools, boutique shopping, and world-class dining. The main home has been meticulously maintained and features fresh interior and exterior paint, newly refinished hardwood floors, and a brand-new roof. Major infrastructure updates-including a new water filtration system and new well pump-provide total peace of mind while preserving the home's original historic character. A standout highlight of the property is the massive, refurbished barn. Remarkably versatile, it offers endless possibilities: park multiple cars, create a dream artist's studio, set up a secluded home office, or build out the ultimate workshop and storage space. Additional freshly painted outbuildings-including a vintage shed and an original historic outhouse-add distinct character to the lush, well tended grounds. Protected under a Preservation Easement Program, this property ensures its architectural heritage and classic New England charm will be preserved for generations to come. An extraordinary opportunity to own a turnkey historic home with endless potential in one of Fairfield County's premier communities.
