Newtown is a small, scenic Connecticut community with a classic New England look. The town is populated with many historical homes, along with public parks and gardens. 

Newtown’s appeal lies in its pleasant style and surrounding scenery, which caters to an active outdoor lifestyle. There are many hiking and biking trails, and fishers and boaters have convenient access to Taunton Pond, right alongside the town, and Candlewood Lake, a short drive away. While it has a small-town feel, Newtown is part of the New York City metropolitan area. With New York just 60 miles away, all the amenities of the Big Apple are within reach.

Newtown’s historical homes are one reason buyers seek out this area, and Windover Farm at 26 Mt. Nebo Road is a prime example. This is a massive former farm, built in 1876, that has just arrived on the market. This six-bedroom, five-bathroom, 4,704-square-foot residence has been painstakingly restored and is now equipped with modern amenities while retaining its historic appeal.

The home’s interior boasts wide open spaces and windows that offer stunning property views. A fireplace makes the spacious living room especially cozy, and hardwood floors run throughout the home.

The kitchen is one of the standout rooms of this property, featuring a large central walnut-topped island, custom cabinetry, and sleek modern appliances. Residents can enjoy their meals at the cozy dining nook attached to the kitchen or the home’s formal dining space.

Above the three-car garage is a large open room, which homeowners could transform into a media area, home office, workout space, or the like. The expansive primary bedroom connects to a balcony that overlooks the beautiful property.

While the home’s interior is gorgeous, it might be the home’s exterior that attracts the most buyer attention. Sitting on 33 private acres of land, Windover Farm has many features intact that allow it to serve as a functioning farm. A four-story barn includes three large horse stalls and is connected to a tile silo. The former milking barn has a 1,400-square-foot insulated/heated/cooled space for a workshop or studio. There are eight flat fields for planting crops or gardens and acres of densely forested land that include mature maple trees and a sugar shack.

This is a one-of-a-kind property—a historical farm home in a pleasant Connecticut community. Listing agent Sindy Butkus calls the home “an idyllic Gentlemen’s farm,” and with acres upon acres of private space and fully functional farm equipment, Windover Farm at 26 Mt. Nebo, currently priced at $2,915,000, can serve an array of purposes for the lucky buyers.
