    What's special

    The stately John Francis Tavern circa 1764 located in the heart of Old Wethersfield. Views of the Cove & steps away from the Village Center! A grand center hall welcomes you into this very special home. The living room & dining room are inviting, sun-filled rooms off the foyer. Both rooms have a fireplace surrounded by the original paneling. The kitchen has a fireplace with a beehive oven, cherry cabinetry & a water view. Because it was a tavern, the study also has a fireplace with beehive oven. The paneling & cupboards surrounding the fireplaces are notably some of the finest in Wethersfield. Wide floorboards, 7 fireplaces & original hardware add to the character that is sewn into every nook of this home.The great room bridges the old with the "new," offering the perfect spot for both everyday enjoyment & entertaining. Two walls of windows flood the space w/ natural light & overlook the very private, fenced yard. It seamlessly transitions into additional living space. Formerly a doctor's office, you can create a home office, a first floor primary suite, or in-law/guest suite, complete with a separate entrance. Upstairs, you will find 4 well proportioned bedrooms, 3 fireplaces, 2 full baths & wide floorboards throughout. More to love...gas heat, high ceilings, new roof, walk-up attic, wine cellar, 2 car garage & carport. Many special features left for your surprise! Wethersfield is CT's largest historic district in the state of CT contains 1200 structures, over 150 built prior to 1850. History lovers, architecture fans, and those who love the charm of a classic New England Village will love Old Wethersfield! Cove Park, Laura's Garden, Mikey's Place, Hanmer Elementary School and the weekly farmers market are all steps away. A short stroll will take you to the Main Street shops, restaurants and museums. The thriving historic village has several events throughout the year...Bicycles on Main, Porchfest, Art Walk, Scarecrows on Main, Holidays on Main, Heritage weekend, pop-up markets, 5k races, parades & festivals. Along with that there are concerts, seminars and lectures...something to do every day!
