Step back in time, in 21st century comfort, with every modern amenity, to one of the oldest homes in Connecticut's First Town. The "Phelps House" is one of the few original saltbox homes in the region and came to life 100 years before the Declaration of Independence. Painstaking maintenance and years of loving care are evident in its sturdy floors, panelling, exposed rough beams, unique cupboards and historic kitchen fireplace*. This home affords that rare combination of 21st Century living coupled with centuries of New England history, a rare and charming opportunity. With updated mechanicals and electrical as well as thermopane "wood' windows (2015), this home is heated with natural gas with surprisingly low heating bills. The 10'x14' deck was added in 2017. The current owner was never purposely looking for a historic home but was so captivated by this home with so much history and charm and put his heart and soul into this gem. Come take a look to see why! (Previous buyer had a change of life situation and had to back out) Kitchen fireplace does not function as it needs a liner. The chimney does have a copper cap!
