Property Description
Period Details | Modern Comfort | Room to Grow Welcome home to 11 West Chestnut Hill, a remarkable piece of Connecticut history now awaiting its next chapter. This magnificent 5-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom property is set on 1.6 picturesque acres, ideally nestled just a half-mile from the historic Litchfield town green. Lovingly hand-built in 1804 by Stephen Clark for his wife and daughter on the site of an old blacksmith and tannery, this residence offers an unparalleled blend of architectural integrity and storied past. As a superb example of colonial architecture, the home retains its traditional "4 over 4" floor plan, featuring four grand, sun-drenched rooms on the first level and four generous bedrooms above, all connected by an elegant central hallway. Step inside and experience the character of historic construction. Watch the light truly dance through the mesmerizing antique crown-glass window panes. The interiors are adorned with exquisite original details, including wide-plank chestnut flooring in the primary suite, built-in closets, and five stately fireplaces that serve as captivating focal points throughout the main rooms.
