Description

Step into New England history with this timeless eyebrow Colonial, circa 1870, nestled just minutes from Sharon's picturesque village center. This beautiful antique gem reflects the enduring charm of a bygone era, when horse-drawn buggies traveled the quiet roads of Litchfield County and life moved at a gentler pace. Rich in antique details, the home features wide-board pine floors, a built-in corner hutch, and custom bookshelves, each element echoing the craftsmanship of the 19th century. In the back of the house, the original red oak siding, a true hallmark of the period, has recently been sanded and is currently being finished with a fresh coat of Benjamin Moore WoodLux stain, restoring its warmth and integrity while enhancing its long-term durability. The spacious living room and eat-in kitchen offer hardwood floors and abundant natural light. A flexible bonus room serves as an ideal office or formal dining area. Four generous bedrooms and well-maintained baths provide comfort and convenience. Set in a tranquil location with easy access to shops, restaurants, lakes, and the Appalachian Trail-this is a timeless New England gem that blends historic detail with everyday functionality.
