Step into New England history with the Jehiel Hale House, a rarely available historic Colonial on picturesque Main Street in Glastonbury. Built in 1795 and thoughtfully updated for modern living, this 3,495 square foot residence seamlessly blends 18th-century charm with today's amenities. Featuring three spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a half bath, this stately home boasts timeless craftsmanship, including six working brick fireplaces, two with original beehive ovens, wide board floors, and exceptional use of King's Pine in the floors and wall paneling. Original paneling and exquisite architectural details preserve the home's heritage, while updates such as a new roof, new central air system, newer Buderus boiler, and freshly painted exterior provide peace of mind. A bonus room over the garage includes a full bath and dry bar -- an ideal flex space that can serve as a media room, game room, home office, or even a fourth bedroom. Sited on over an acre of beautifully maintained land, the property includes a fully functioning historic chicken coop and a charming barn with room for two vehicles. Enjoy a prime location just a short stroll from Glastonbury Center's acclaimed restaurants, boutique shops, and scenic riverfront park. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Glastonbury's rich past while enjoying all the conveniences of today. Don't miss your chance to make history your home.
