Description
Step into living history at 400 Wire Mill Road, a one-of-a-kind log-cabin retreat once owned by Gutzon Borglum, the famed sculptor of Mount Rushmore. Built in 1877 this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been meticulously renovated from the ground up while maintaining its authentic log-cabin character blending timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort. The dramatic two-story great room showcases hand-restored logs, exposed beams, and a stunning stone fireplace opening to a covered patio and lush, landscaped grounds. The 2021 kitchen features Brazilian Negresco quartzite countertops, custom cabinetry, and top-tier appliances, while updated baths include European porcelain tile and spa-like finishes. A climate-controlled flex space-formerly a two-car garage-offers flexibility as a studio, gym, recreation room, or potential first-floor primary suite. Set on over an acre and surrounded by mature trees and stone walls, this property feels worlds away, yet it's just minutes from the Merritt Parkway, shopping, and schools. 400 Wire Mill Road is more than a home - it's a piece of Stamford's storied past, thoughtfully reimagined for modern living.
