Historic Ridgefield Estate - Where Legacy Meets Modern Luxury. Originally built in 1911 as the Ridgefield School for Boys, this unique estate once anchored a vast 115-acre campus and featured more than 100 rooms, including classrooms, dormitories, and offices. When the school closed, the property was purchased by Francis D. Martin, who gave it a bold architectural overhaul by removing the top three floors, reshaping its silhouette but preserving its timeless character. Today, the lower level still holds remarkable original features: a working walk-in refrigerator and compressor, a functioning coal burner, a vintage dumbwaiter, and the legendary "Dungeon Room", all offering a rare, tangible connection to the property's rich and storied past.
