About This Home

As of January 2025

Welcome to 130 Union St! An historical home showcasing elegance, history, space, location & modern amenities. Tall ceilings, crown molding, marble fireplace-surrounds & a curved, grand staircase adorn this antique gem. The elegant entrance foyer features a freshly polyurethane, honey colored parquet floor which features a dark walnut inlay border. A period globed chandelier lights the way to 4 formal rooms which include an oversized parlor, rear parlor, music room/library, & a grand dining room that is connected to the custom kitchen via the restored, period butler's pantry which has a wet bar, glass-door china cabinets, custom dimmable lighting & wine cooler. The newer kitchen, finished in 2021, features repurposed walnut floors, granite countertops, ample custom cabinetry, a gorgeous wood-beamed ceiling, ambient lighting, center island & black SS appliances. Upstairs, accessed via either the formal staircase or the back stairway, is an oversized primary bedroom suite that is connected to a full bath & closet; adjacent to the primary bedroom suite are 2 additional rooms that can be used for sitting rooms, an additional bedroom, boudoir, nursey, office, sewing room, or whatever your lifestyle beckons.

The rustic stone basement has plenty of space for a workshop or plant-potting area & the cozy backyard is a blank slate waiting to become an enchanted, hidden garden space with stone walled terraces & bluestone for barbecuing, entertaining & relaxing. Stay warm in the winter with the home's five-zoned gas heating system & stay cool in the summertime via the central air & split unit. Across from the majestic St. Patrick's Cathedral on Broadway, Norwich, Connecticut & facing the lovely, historic Little Plain Park, sits this restored, 1850s Italianate/Greek- Revival home adorned with dentil molding, belvedere, large windows & a paneled-pilaster front porch showcasing an original quarter-sawn oak front door surrounded by transom windows & sidelights. A recipient of the 1996 Preservation Award from the Norwich Historic District, this home is nestled on 7/10ths an acre & features 4,000 square feet of historic & elegant living space. For almost 50 years, this elegant structure was the home of Edwin W. Higgins- a locally-educated, prominent congressman whose original, large, custom-monogrammed iron safe stays with the home in the library. Upon transfer of ownership of this home, the new homeowner will be provided with the combination to this safe & can look forward to exploring lots of interesting items & documentation! This elegant, one-of-a-kind home is steps away from city celebrations, fireworks, parades, memorial commemorations, the Rose Arts Festival & Howard T. Brown Park which boasts abundant fishing. Self-guided architectural & cultural walking tours of Historic Norwich wrap around the district & provide a window into Norwich's rich history as a giant in the industrial revolution, slavery abolition, & cultural landscape.
