About This Home

As of December 2017

Own a piece of history! Step back in time with a visit to the "Tolstoy Cottage". This "dacha" is a modest early 20th Century Cottage, set high above the Pomperaug River in the history-rich section of Southbury known as "Russian Village". The cottage is currently listed on the "National Register of Historic Places" and was built and owned by Count Ilya Tolstoy, son of famed Russian Novelist, Count Leo Tolstoy. Located on 8.4-acres, the property is heavily wooded and private. Zoned for multiple homes, this property could easily serve as the perfect setting for both a private weekend cottage and year-round home or even family compound.
