Welcome to the Rev. Thomas Buckingham house c.1671, whose historic past is deeply rooted to the beginnings of Yale University where it is believed that the first commencement took place in 1702 (Buckingham was an original founder and trustee of Yale). A pristine classic New England Saltbox on the outside with all of the amenities and
updates of the millennium on the inside! Lovingly remodeled by the present owners, while sparing no expense in bringing to its present state-of-the-art condition that blends a seamless union of antique and current. You must take a tour of this property to appreciate the quality of workmanship, perfectly placed rooms and desirable open concept floor plan. The home’s amenities are many and include original post and beams, hand hewn panels, wide planked floorboards, wood burning stove fireplace and premiere finishes - all rich and timeless. Entertaining is pleasure in your custom kitchen with a 6 burner gas stove, upscale appliances and stunning antique finish granite counter tops with a grand center island that seats 4. There is a separate bar area with a sink and wine fridge as well as a huge walk in pantry for more than ample storage. Imagine the conversations that took place in past centuries in your formal dining room! A wonderful Bonus Room located on the second floor is a 4th BR or perfect space for guests, studio, or inlaw suite. Situated on a large walk-to-town lot w/gardens, tool shed, outdoor shower & bluestone patio. A must see!!
