About Benedict House and Shop
Historic Architecture, Architecture, Interesting Places, Other Buildings And Structures
The Benedict House and Shop is located in Ridgefield, Connecticut. The house was built in 1740 and has an adjoining cobbler's shop. It is significant as a rare surviving example of a colonial artisan's workshop. The buildings are among the oldest colonial houses in Ridgefield. A sympathetic restoration by architect Cass Gilbert and other care has preserved the property in good condition.
A gabled barn which is now a house and a wellhouse are also on the property.
The property was added to the National Register of Historic Places on December 4, 1998.
