Prepare to be wowed by the enchanting Middlebrook Farm, a historic gem on over two acres, just minutes from Wilton Center. Built in 1727, this estate is a cornerstone of the community, having served as the Town's Tavern and hosted British Troops in 1777. Meticulously renovated, it blends historic charm with modern luxury across 5,028 square feet. The home features 16 rooms, including 6 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, with high ceilings and an open floor plan. At its heart is a gourmet kitchen, imported from the UK and designed by Mark Wilkinson, featuring marble and soapstone countertops and a cherry wood island. Middlebrook Farm offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of history with all the comforts of today. A few extra highlights: the balcony or indoor upstairs landing are beautiful places to watch the 4th of July Fireworks. The sellers believe the fireplace beehive ovens work. Almost every room has excellent purpose storage -either a traditional closet or shelving/bookshelves that keep spaces looking uncluttered. The attic has clothing storage sellers had built that is about 30 feet long with wooden shelving on top -great for holding seasonal clothing for a large wardrobe. The property boasts beautiful Mulberry bushes.

Source detail: Wilton’s municipal records identify permit types, categories and dates, but do not include public work descriptions for these records.

Interpretation note: This matched record set reflects only the municipal data currently imported; it is not a claim that no other work occurred.

How we compile this. The source is Wilton municipal permit records. These records are imported periodically and are not a live feed from the town. A permit’s presence does not, by itself, confirm that work was completed or passed final inspection. Dates shown are issue dates unless identified otherwise. Descriptions may be lightly edited for readability without changing material details. Dollar amounts are town-reported project costs or permit valuations, not estimates of the property’s market value.
