About This Home

As of October 2020

Beautiful vintage Victorian tastefully renovated from top to bottom. Enjoy the New Preston village location of Washington, CT for easy access to Lake Waramaug, Bantam, Litchfield, the Northwest Corner and our Litchfield Hills. Take advantage of hiking Steep Rock's many trails and preserves. Spacious rooms and high ceilings provide the setting for easy entertainment. Detail and trim throughout that highlight our past. Interior features include radiant floor heating in the kitchen & main bath, a butlers pantry, chestnut floors, rear stairway, upper screened porch, antique bead board detailing, pocket doors, and the list continues. New kitchen has Crown Point cabinetry that exemplifies the character and charm of this period home along with a floor plan and top end appliances appreciated by discerning cooks and homeowners. Quiet location with views and a detached garage/ barn. Would make a terrific full time or part time home. This is a lot of house for the money and perfect for making memories.
