Rare Opportunity to own and restore the oldest home in Darien and one of the oldest remaining commercial structures in Connecticut! The Pond-Weed Home has marked the entrance to Darien since circa 1694, serving as a Tavern and Blacksmith Shop over the years. Incredibly unique, the home has remained almost untouched over the last 20 years and contains much of the original components. 3+ BR's, 2Ba's and central air accompany three fireplaces surrounded by English Gardens, a walk-up attic and original root cellar. Multiple options exist for the buyer who is interested in restoration and sustainability through the Town of Darien & Preservation Connecticut including subdividing the property, mixed-use and the addition of a secondary structure for income property. Agent has details.
