Our Take
65 Church Street in New Canaan is a 1929 home with three bedrooms and one full and one half bath on a 0.21-acre lot. Its original hardwood floors, period windows, fireplace, built-ins, and natural light give the rooms a distinctly vintage character. French doors connect the dining room to a screened porch with a skylit cathedral ceiling, while the kitchen adjoins a family room. A circa 1900 barn and landscaped gardens add further features to the private property.
