William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty Lists Historic Weston Home

The listing was announced Thursday, May 5.

William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty announced Thursday, May 5 that a historic property in Weston, Conn., known as “Hog Hollow Farm,” is for sale and listed with Westport agent Lori Elkins. The residence, which is offered at $739,999, has been thoughtfully updated and expanded throughout the years, blending modern-day living with antique charm.

While town records date back to 1825, the home’s hand-hewn timber suggests that the original construction of the residence could have been earlier, or perhaps the residence was rebuilt with materials salvaged from an older structure. Records also indicate that the property was used as a hog farm, which was typical of the area. Although originally encompassing more than 50 acres of land adjacent to the Saugatuck River, the house and its grounds were given to the Northfield Congregational Church in the 1950s and subdivided into parcels for sale. The original house, which is for sale, rests on 1.44 acres of land.
