144 Maple Rd, Mansfield, CT 06268

Historic antique home located in Storrs, CT minutes to UCONN. Known as the "Almshouse," 144 Maple Rd is one of the very few historic "poorhouses" still standing in Connecticut. This beautiful home has been well maintained and retains most of its original features with many of the rooms showcasing their original wide plank flooring. The kitchen boasts "post and beam" style ceilings and a butlers pantry with ample custom cabinetry. The main level flows openly from the large eat-in kitchen to both the dining and living areas with plenty of room for gatherings and entertaining. A full bath and "bonus" room that could be a 5th bedroom/office/den are also located on the first floor. Upstairs are 4 good sized bedrooms and a full bath. The interior retains many antique features including its doors, door hardware, and built-in cabinetry. The home offers a functional floor plan with an inviting feel, sitting on park-like grounds back from the road on a large level lot, with fruit trees, garden areas, landscaped flower beds, a brick patio and cozy sitting areas. The exterior is freshly painted and a new stove and range hood just installed. A true gem, waiting for its new owners. Perfect location.
