University Nantucket Colonial

This 3-bedroom, 3-bath classic New England Colonial blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates, perfectly situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in Fairfield’s sought-after University area — just two miles from the train, town center, and beaches. Originally expanded and renovated in 2005, the home features Nantucket-style cedar shingles, copper half-round gutters, and a welcoming mahogany front porch that instantly feels like home. In 2021, a rear addition brought even more to love — a stunning new kitchen and outdoor patio designed for easy everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home, with custom cabinetry, rich Pietra Cardosa countertops, a glass subway tile backsplash, and a large butcher-block island with seating for three. High-end appliances include a 36” Thermador range with professional hood, Bosch French-door refrigerator, and Thermador dishwasher.

Hardwood floors run throughout, accented by crown molding and abundant natural light. The front-to-back living room offers a cozy wood-burning fireplace, while the spacious dining room is perfect for gatherings large or small.

Upstairs, the primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a private bath with both a Jacuzzi tub and separate shower. The additional bedrooms are bright, generously sized, and feature custom built-ins. The partially finished lower level offers two flexible spaces — ideal for a home office, playroom, or second hangout area — and there’s a full walk-up attic with potential for future expansion. Additional highlights include new central air, a newer hot water heater, natural gas readiness, and an oversized one-car garage. Outside, the backyard is everything you could hope for — private, level, and ready for entertaining, gardening, or just relaxing at the end of the day.
