It features 4 generously sized bedrooms and 5 full baths, with a main-level library/study that can easily serve as a 5th bedroom. At the heart of the home is a stunning eat-in kitchen with a large center island, quartz countertops, ample seating, and a delightful breakfast nook. The adjoining family room showcases a striking fireplace, wood beams, and elegant French doors that open to a lovely stone terrace. A versatile living/dining room includes a fabulous fireplace and window seat overlooking the backyard, and a convenient first-floor laundry enhances daily comfort.

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.
