About This Property
This charming 1937 home nestled on a quiet, tree-lined, sought-after street in Fairfield exudes timeless elegance and modern updates. Built-ins, crown molding, arched doorways, hardwood floors and a classic design blend to create a stunning home sure to impress.
As you step inside, you'll immediately be captivated by the character and warmth this home radiates. Natural light pours in through the double windows in the living room while the stone-faced fireplace and bookshelves warm the space. The first floor has been thoughtfully enhanced while preserving that charming feel. From the dining room chair rail and crown molding to the built-in china cabinet, this is the perfect space to enjoy formal holiday dinners and casual gatherings.
The kitchen features new quartz countertops, stylish subway tile and wainscoting backsplashes, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and a dining area surrounded by walls of windows. A sitting room with bookcases overlooks the fenced-in backyard, deck, and flourishing gardens, and is just steps to the mudroom which has access to the two car garage. Tucked in the corner is the newly finished full bathroom with a glass walk-in shower adorned with Carrara marble. This luxurious addition perfectly complements the home's original 1930's charm. New design elements continue to the second floor; here you will find three bedrooms with closet organizers, and a fully renovated, timeless bathroom. Don’t miss the linen shelf behind the bathroom door!
The partially finished lower level features a family room, plenty of storage in California closets, a gym, and hidden crawl space with additional storage. The attention to detail continues throughout the home, with custom blinds and Roman shades on all windows. New light fixtures have been installed, enhancing the ambiance and adding a touch of modern to each space. The updates to this home extend beyond the aesthetics, ensuring modern comfort and convenience. In 2018, all plumbing was replaced, and in 2019 the exterior received a fresh coat of paint, further enhancing the home’s curb appeal. A new HVAC system was installed in 2020, providing efficient heating and cooling with an updated AC and furnace.
The backyard was transformed in 2021 with an adorable picket fence and deck railing, offering privacy and safety. The hardscaping and raised garden beds, implemented in 2020, create a beautiful outdoor retreat. Imagine cozying up next to the outdoor stone fireplace, surrounded by blooming and fragrant plants, which creates a private oasis for relaxation and entertainment. Gardening enthusiasts will appreciate the thoughtfully planted hydrangea hedge in the front yard, adding a burst of color. Additionally, a delightful feature out front is the Little Free Library, a small haven of books for the community to enjoy, which can be passed on to the new homeowner should they desire.
This home is located in one of the Fairfield’s most desirable neighborhoods, Stratfield, a neighborhood known for quiet tree-lined streets, block parties, beautiful homes, friendly neighbors and close amenities. Walk to the Four Corners for goodies, Lt Owen Fish Park or take a short drive to downtown Fairfield, the beach, schools, highways, train stations and more. Don’t miss the opportunity to own the most charming home on the block, with its classic architectural details, modern upgrades, and serene outdoor spaces. It’s a true gem waiting to be discovered and cherished by its next lucky owner.
