History comes full circle at Egglington Hall (c. 1794), an extraordinary estate anchored by a beautifully restored Federal-style Main House set on a sweeping, landscaped expanse near downtown Milford and recognized on the National Register of Historic Places. This remarkable 5,500-square-foot residence offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and multiple fireplaces, blending historic elegance with modern comfort. A stately circular driveway and expansive front lawn create a grand first impression, while inside, soaring 10-foot ceilings and a dramatic three-story staircase set the tone. The chef’s kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, gas range, bricked warming drawer, center island, morning room, and a wet/coffee bar with separate ice maker. The foyer opens to a formal living room, and French doors lead to a wheelchair-accessible main-level bedroom with ensuite bath featuring a roll-in shower. Upstairs, the magnificent primary suite showcases painted wood floors, a fireplace, and a spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, oversized step-in shower, dual vanities, and a second fireplace, along with an additional bedroom, full guest bath, and balcony overlooking the front grounds; the third floor offers a spacious fourth bedroom or flexible living space. Outdoors, sliding doors open to a rear brick patio with koi pond, lush gardens, covered patio, outdoor shower, and a screened kasbah-style dining area with ambient lighting. An above-ground pool with raised deck enhances the resort-like setting, while a separate pool house—partially finished with concrete flooring below and engineered wood above—offers potential as an accessory dwelling unit with space for a future kitchen and bath. Solar panels add energy efficiency to this rare offering, presenting exceptional versatility as a multi-generational home, event venue, vacation rental, or investment opportunity—an iconic estate ready to begin its next chapter. Listing is for Main house only and is subject to Town of Milford subdivision hearing and approval on March 12, 2026.
