Built in 1765 the house is situated on what was the original Westport-Wilton Road (which the British marched on as they made their way up to the battle of Ridgefield). This house was built by Ezra Waterbury as a wedding present to his daughter Rhuana and son-in law. The house has been enlarged and renovated over the years, but some original construction remains including foundations, floors, windows and fireplaces. Part of one chimney is built from bricks used as ballast in ships engaged in the Colonial trade. The cellar, with its dirt floor, has an original baking oven. But this is no historical relic. Set on over two wooded shared acres with additional two acres of protected wetlands behind, this three bedroom features two fireplaces, beams, hardwood and mosaic tile floors, central AC upstairs and brick patio with fountain.
