23 Church St, Wilton, CT 06897

Back on the market solely due to previous buyer financing dissolution, this exceptional 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath antique Colonial is ready for its next chapter. Celebrated by The New York Times, Realtor.com, and Homes.com for its distinctive character, this home offers the ultimate blend of historic integrity and modern ease. The light-filled interior was designed for effortless, low-maintenance living. Sunlight pours through oversized windows, illuminating wide-plank floors and an updated granite kitchen. French doors lead to a private stone patio, looking out on 1.49 professionally landscaped acres with classic stone walls, native gardens and serene outdoor spaces. The main level features a dramatic dining room with a skylight, a spacious living room with a cozy reading nook and wood stove, plus a main-level laundry room. Upstairs, a vintage-inspired full bath accompanies three charming bedrooms, including a primary suite with a large walk-in closet. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the property is a part of the Pollinator Pathway Project and a Certified National Wildlife Habitat. Located in Wilton's Historic District, this home trades the burden of an oversized footprint for an efficient, lock-and-go sanctuary just a short stroll to Georgetown's vibrant cafes, restaurants, and Caraluzzi's Market. With city water, total privacy, and effortless access to Route 7 and Metro-North, this is a perfectly priced masterclass in historic charm.
