A rare and extraordinary blend of history and modern living nestled on 2.74 private and bucolic acres. This 4-bedroom antique Colonial is the seamless union of two iconic 18th-century Wilton homes - the 1772 Middlebrook-Morgan Homestead and the 1820 Morehouse-Holmes House - relocated, re-framed, and rebuilt with meticulous attention to detail. Every visible beam is original and structural, preserving rich character while offering contemporary comfort. Highlights include a stunning Chef's Kitchen with a French Billot de Boucher butcher block (c.1880, Bordeaux), mercantile counter (c.1895, Nova Scotia), chestnut island with honed black granite, and divided light windows. The Family Room centers on a beehive oven fireplace, rebuilt stone-by-stone. A luxurious primary suite features a Murano glass chandelier, Rumsford fireplace, and custom quartz vanity in the spacious bath. Other features throughout include 250-year-old exposed timbers, antique chestnut/pine floors, a finished 3rd floor, original Borning Room, new baths/mechanicals/washer/dryer, and, a 6-zone heating & cooling system. Outdoors find a 2-story barn with electricity, a freestanding greenhouse, in-ground Gunite pool with granite decking, beautiful grounds, and a simply stunning 228-year-old Sycamore tree - one of the oldest trees in all of New England. "1 OLD HOUSE + 1 OLD HOUSE = A NEW OLD HOUSE," as storied in This Old House magazine. This property is truly a historic treasure ... reimagined for modern life.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
