12 Gerdes Road Overview

Time on Site:
75 days

A classic 18th-century New England farmhouse, reimagined for the 21st century after a comprehensive five-year renovation. Thoughtfully modernized, the home retains its original character while seamlessly integrating contemporary comforts and style. Light-filled, open living spaces create an airy, modern feel, grounded by whitewashed Douglas fir flooring and anchored by a large, updated kitchen with a working fireplace. Generously sized bedrooms include a primary suite with a custom walk-in closet and a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring a soaking tub. Throughout the home, period details pay tribute to its rich heritage, while extensive mechanical upgrades ensure effortless, move-in-ready living. Set on a beautifully landscaped acre filled with mature trees and flowering shrubs, the property offers a peaceful retreat. A sun-drenched pool is discreetly nestled in the rear, and a charming covered porch provides the perfect setting for summer gatherings, quiet mornings, or evening entertaining. Additional highlights include an expansive walk-up attic offering potential for future expansion. Ideally located across from Waveny Park and just under two miles from downtown New Canaan and its top-rated schools.
