53 Old Town Street is more than a house; it is a living chapter of Connecticut history, gracefully updated for modern life, this impeccably preserved (circa) 1747 center-chimney homestead with clapboard facade, restored six-over-six windows, period hardware, and exposed post-and-beam framing sets an authentic tone that continues though out the interior of the home, where a grand sitting room centers on an awe-inspiring eight-foot hearth. Original paneling, wide-pine floors burnished by generations, open beamed ceilings, built-in corner cupboards, and hand-wrought latches complete the historic canvas. A thoughtfully designed wing featuring a vaulted-ceiling primary suite with a spa-inspired bath, blending seamlessly into the home's scale and style. Outside, roughly 24 acres of rolling meadows, whispering woodlands, and fenced pasture with nearly a mile of stone walls and a classic post-and-beam barn only steps from the back door. There are endless possibilities-equestrian haven, boutique vineyard, Airbnb-worthy estate, organic farming, Historic heritage site or a private family retreat. Just minutes from the Connecticut River, Goodspeed Opera House, Gillette Castle , and less than two hours to Boston or New York, this tranquil sanctuary is the perfect country getaway.
