Public Remarks

Believed to date back to 1640, this is one of Connecticuts oldest surviving homes-a rare opportunity to own a piece of early New England history. Set on 8.57 private acres bordered by original stone walls, this 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers approximately 2,700 sq ft of living space, with graciously sized rooms, original wood details, and a cedar-lined closet. A major highlight is the dramatic 22 x 35 studio space added in the 1970s-featuring tall ceilings and abundant light-perfect for an artist, dancer, musician, or anyone seeking an inspiring workspace. Also on the property is a large detached barn with a rustic upper-level studio, once used by notable local artists. While the barn needs restoration, it includes a fireplace, loft, and lower-level storage area with a dirt floor-ideal for equipment or gardening tools. Surrounded by protected forest and located across from Beckett Hill State Park and Nehantic State Forest, this unique property offers tranquility, history, and creative potential.

Paperwork for installation of septic tank in 2018, radon and water test results are included in the MLS attachments. Property being sold As-is which is reflected in the price.
