Our Take
7 Old Highway in Wilton is a 1930s home with five bedrooms, two full baths, and one half bath. The foyer opens to a living room with a stone fireplace and a sunfilled dining room, while the family room provides space for gatherings. An updated kitchen centers on a large island. Upstairs, the master bedroom suite is joined by four additional bedrooms and an updated hall bath. The home also offers a front porch, expansive backyard, walk-out lower level with windows, laundry, storage, central air, and a new heating system.
Historic Profile
7 Old Highway is a one-and-a-half-story Craftsman bungalow dating to the late 1920s. Built as a single-family residence, it was later enlarged with an addition and fitted with modern windows. The home has a front porch, a stone fireplace in the living room and built-in shelving. Its construction falls within Wilton’s interwar period of residential growth, when new homes introduced a range of architectural styles alongside the town’s older houses.
Research note: The survey by Stacey Vairo and Lucas Karmazinas dates the house to approximately 1929 and identifies it as a Craftsman bungalow. Other sources give 1930 and use Cape Cod or farmhouse labels. The addition’s date, original architect, builder and early ownership remain unconfirmed.

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.
