Property details

About 126 Old Belden Hill Rd

*** Highest and Best Tuesday at 5pm*** Steeped in history and brimming with character, this one-of-a-kind craftsman-style home is a true gem. Built in the 1940s by famed Broadway actor Greek Evans, it sits on the former site of a 5,000-seat outdoor amphitheater, carrying with it a legacy as rich as its design. Inside, the vaulted great room showcases post-and-beam construction, a rustic fieldstone fireplace, pecky cypress paneling, custom built-ins, and an abundance of windows that flood the space with natural light. The functional kitchen features granite countertops, while the adjacent sunroom, with its slate flooring and walls of windows, offers a private retreat. Hardwood floors run through most of the home, enhancing its warmth and timeless charm. The main level includes two bedrooms and a full bath, while a private third bedroom awaits upstairs. The lower level features a garage, laundry, and additional storage. Nestled in a wooded setting with multiple patios, this home blends privacy with convenience--minutes from both the Merritt Parkway and I-95, shopping, dining, Cranbury Park, Wilton Town Center, and the "WilWalk" section of the Norwalk River Valley Trail. This is more than a house; it's a story waiting for its next chapter. Don't miss the chance to be part of its incredible history!
