About This Home

As of November 2023

This lovely iconic house in the Sharon Historic District is in a prime Upper Main Street location overlooking the Sharon Green and walking distance to shops and restaurants. Built between 1780 and 1796 and known as the Joshua Bassett Brownell house, its classic center hall layout features spacious rooms with high ceilings and 5 fireplaces. On the market for the first time in almost 50 years, it offers graciousness and charm not easily found today. With western exposure, the beautiful expansive living room is perfect for entertaining as is the sizable dining room with china cabinet and very pretty windowed alcove. Another front parlor can be used as a family room or study, and there is an additional library/office with wood burning fireplace. Three exposures make the large, eat in kitchen sunny and bright all day and a wonderful place to gather. There are four bedrooms and one full bath on the second floor, and a fifth bedroom and bath is accessed by a staircase in the kitchen. Up the driveway on this 1.3 acre property are two garage barns. This house is steeped in the history of Sharon having once been a boarding school in the mid 1800's. A convenient location near Metro North at Wassaic and close proximity to many area schools such as Hotchkiss and Indian Mountain School. A rare offering!
