Step through the doors of history and into one of Connecticut's most treasured colonial residences. Built in 1760 and proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Jabez Bacon House is a rare masterpiece of 18th-century American architecture that has endured with remarkable grace for over 260 years. This distinguished home has also been recognized for its exceptional preservation and character, having been featured in Early American Life magazine and Historic Homes magazine-an honor that speaks to its authenticity and enduring appeal. This stately five bedroom home showcases original architectural details that collectors and history enthusiasts dream about. Seven fireplaces anchor the home's character across its generous 4,800+ square feet. Five beautifully paneled rooms reveal the craftsmanship of a bygone era, while antique wide-board flooring runs throughout, whispering stories of centuries past beneath every footstep.
While honoring its historic character, the home has also benefited from over $300,000 in thoughtful improvements that enhance comfort and preservation without compromising authenticity. Notable upgrades include the installation of central air conditioning for modern year-round comfort and elegant copper gutters that complement the home's historic architecture while providing lasting durability. These investments ensure the property is as functional as it is beautiful, blending 18th-century craftsmanship with the conveniences expected today. Beyond the historical significance, this home offers genuine livability with four full bathrooms, one half bath, and spacious rooms designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living. The residential zoning ensures a peaceful setting that honors the home's timeless nature. The location is equally enchanting. Situated near Hollow Park in Woodbury - a town Reader's Digest once described as "simply charming" - you'll enjoy walkable access to local restaurants, unique shops, and the vibrant heart of this beloved New England community. Opportunities to own a property of this caliber, significance, and authenticity come along once in a lifetime. Don't let this extraordinary piece of American history pass you by.
