Step back in time with this remarkably well-preserved 1789 four-bedroom, two-bath historic treasure, set on **park-like grounds** in a peaceful country setting. Rich in character, the home boasts wide plank floors**, intricate original raised paneling, six fireplaces and exquisite woodworking throughout. Many original features remain, including a rare **stone sink in the old buttery, blending timeless craftsmanship with modern comfort. The first floor offers a sunny, spacious kitchen with granite countertops, farmer's sink, and abundant windows framing beautiful backyard views, plus a first-floor laundry and charming clawfoot tub bath. A formal dining room and parlor provide elegant gathering spaces. Upstairs, enjoy four spacious bedrooms with generous closets, an enclosed porch overlooking the grounds, and a walk-up attic. With newer mechanicals, this bright, airy home offers both enduring beauty and peace of mind. Ideally located-just minutes to downtown Middletown's shops and restaurants, and only 30 minutes to Hartford or New Haven-this is a rare chance to become the steward of a truly special piece of Connecticut history.
