This aging grand dame was designed by celebrated Connecticut architect Alice Washburn in 1929. It bears all the Washburn hallmarks: Palladio design over the front door, grand entry with wide stairway, built-in dining hutches, original hardwood floors, and oversized base molding ~ This amazing residence has "great bones," sure to attract any curator with an eye towards renovation~ The 4-bedroom colonial is zoned as a legal two-family residence as there is an attached apartment with conjoined patio entrance ~ Large double hung windows usher in natural sunlight; dual staircases in the main residence lead to the bedrooms and an au-pair or teenage suite ~ A huge attic with generous ceiling height provides expansion possibilities ~ The office, former sunporch, is ideally located for a possible private entrance ~ Quaint touches such as the decorative fireplace mantle and hearth and a 3-story laundry shoot are bound to capture the imagination of the home buyer looking to restore an historic New England colonial to its grandeur ~ Recent updates include 200 amp electrical service and two new oil furnaces and three oil tanks.
