Pierson Farm is a captivating property along the Connecticut Shoreline. It was once the home of the Rev. Abraham Piersion, son of the first president of Yale University. Dating to 1755, this classic New England cape with wood-shake roof blends 18th-century charm with 21st-century comfort. Inside the museum-quality house, you'll find a formal parlor with a working fireplace and original paneling, a dining room with working fireplace and corner cupboard, and a paneled keeping room boasting a working Rumford fireplace with its original cooking crane and beehive oven. Floors are antique, including original chestnut floors in the keeping room. The first floor full bath showcases antique cabinetry from a colonial buttery. Many window pains are original glass, including the transom over the original front door with original hardware. Upstairs are three cottage bedrooms and a full bath featuring original timbers, sloping ceilings , and lovely views. Almost 5 acres in size, the property includes a 3 bay garage with loft, an antique barn, and a wash house or potting shed. English cottage gardens, stone walls, mature plantings, fire pit, hand dug well for gardening, and a pond create a sanctuary. Updates include a new furnace, central air, a new kitchen with top-of-the line appliances, and first floor W/D. The interior is professionally painted in Farrow & Ball. Pierson Farm is 10 min. to I-95, Amtrack which will get you to NYC and Boston in 2 hours. This exceptional property is a unique blend of history and charm and a rare opportunity to own a piece of Connecticut's rich heritage.
