341 Walkley Hill Rd, Haddam, CT 06438

Known as the McKean Dickinson House, the house is believed to date back to 1792, perhaps even as early as 1750 based on the fireplaces. Sited on almost 3/4 of an acre and set off the road on a gentle knoll, the house is listed as a contributing building to the Haddam Center National Register District. This once simple and proud historic home is in need of some 21st century love. Many, many of the original features remain including wide board floors, 3 original and working fireplaces, wood paneled doors, original posts and beams...the list goes on and on. It was lovingly and meticulously restored between 1977 and 1985 (Please see photos for a 5 page article from Connecticut Magazine, September 1985) but has had some deferred maintenance over the years. Priced to sell and in "as is" condition, this home is a perfect summer project for the antique enthusiast. The Connecticut Trust for Historic Preservation would be an excellent source of information and possible tax incentives for restoration may be available.
