About This Home

As of May 2021

There is much interest connected with the Tainter Homestead, situated one mile west of the village of Colchester. This significant example of 18th century colonial architecture, was built by Charles Tainter in 1761 and remained in the family until the early 20th century.
This five-bay hand-hewn heavy timber frame dwelling was painstakingly restored to museum quality and is move-in ready. The dining room corner cupboard, mouldings, hinges and original paint have been featured in two books: Architecture and The Early Domestic Architecture of Connecticut. Original wide plank flooring, hand forged wrought iron hardware, and woodwork throughout. The home sitting on a walk out, full basement, contains two functional cooking hearths along with four additional functional fireplaces in the parlor and bedrooms.-
The fertile 6.76 acres sits on a hill about halfway between Hartford and New London. It features a barn (circa 1850) with chicken coop, a timber frame corn crib, and outhouse as well as two ponds and a full time creek. New septic, furnace, electric box, oven, dishwasher, rockwool insulation, french doors, exterior paint. 20k whole house generator!--**Taxes are $9,349-- Currently in multiple offers- Highest and Best offers due by 3/21/2921 at noon.
