Our Take
239 Beach Road is a five-bedroom Fairfield Colonial with a wraparound porch, hardwood floors, built-ins, custom millwork, and a fireplace. The main living spaces include a living room, sitting room, formal dining room, and family room. The eat-in kitchen has Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, custom cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and a vaulted breakfast area. Upstairs are a primary suite with an updated bath and soaking tub, four additional bedrooms, and two full baths. Outside, a landscaped backyard, brick patio, and two-car garage complement the home’s position across from Town Hall and its park.
Historic Profile
239 Beach Road is historically known as St. Paul’s Parsonage, a residence associated with Fairfield’s Episcopal parish. The house combines Colonial Revival features with a wraparound porch and wood siding. Inside, its present-day features include hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry and a fireplace. Still a single-family residence, it stands within the locally designated Old Post Road Historic District and is included in the Fairfield Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places.
Research note: The Fairfield Historic District Commission dates the house to approximately 1927, while other sources cite 1900. The Episcopal Church in Connecticut describes a second rectory purchased in 1927 without identifying its address; that account does not establish this house’s construction date. The commission also names Harold C. Bullard in its architect and builder column, but his precise involvement remains unverified. A property-specific contributing classification within the National Register district was not established.
