About this House

425 Brookside Dr. Fairfield, CT is:
1) a quintessential New England home...
2) with a breathtaking water view of Mill River.
3) It is a truly charming “Antique Home”...
4) that has maintained both the exterior and interior permanent architectural features and character of the bygone Arts & Crafts era in which it was built
5) It also offers a large number of permanent features around the property that harken back to that bygone era including:
• a history reaching back into the 19th century. While Town records indicate that 425 Brookside Drive became a single-family home early in the 20th century, earlier records strongly suggest that its stone and mortar core structure functioned as either a building for storing the apples gathered from the orchard that thrived on the other side of Mill River along Brookside Drive in the 1800s. -- Or in fact was the mill that crushed the apples into cider.
• 425 Brookside was one of the earliest homes built along Mill River on Brookside Drive. It is a vintage Craftsman Bungalow erected in the 1920s. It is situated at the foot of Greenfield Hill right on Mill River, along a stretch of nearly 100 yards of river bank. It has a number of upper floor views as well as a deck that look out over the river.
• The property features nearly a dozen long, old stone walls, plus…
• numerous natural stone step walkways…
• 14 large antique lanterns that light up and shimmer in the water along a 90 yard stretch of Mill River at night…
• a waterfall with a cascading 10 foot drop into a tributary that flows under a stone driveway bridge into Mill River…
• 50 yards of elegant gravel driveway…
• a large Craftsman front porch with arts & crafts rafter-tails and dramatic white columns that sit atop massive stone pillars…
• a traditional New England, red and white barn-like, two-car garage with a second floor for storage, plus a third garage bay nestled within the part of the cellar of my home that faces Mill River…
• a fireplace room and a laundry room as well as 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a formal dining room, a foyer and an eat-in kitchen…
• and innumerable, true-to Arts & Crafts era, permanent, value-adding, solid oak “built-ins” throughout the house including cabinetry, columns, beams, bookcases, leather-cushioned benches, hide-away closets, walk-in closets,10 wine cubbies, wainscoting and even a baronial front door reminiscent of a fairy tale. Plus permanently affixed, value-adding, arts & crafts era features including leaded glass pocket doors, stained glass windows, antique chandeliers and sconces, vintage wallpapers, stucco ceilings, art nouveau dado wall paneling and mirrors, marble counter tops and floors, oak hardwood floors, Persian stair runners, in-wall air conditioners and walk-in closets.

In 2021, both appraisers and realtors assigned an $800,000 to $850,000 Fair Market Value.
