Rare opportunity to own a piece of Connecticut history. Built c. 1757-58 by Ebenezer Grant, with a 1695 rear ell, this National Registered Georgian Colonial sits on nearly 6 pristine acres in South Windsor's Main Street Historic District. The celebrated CT River Doorway is among the finest in the state. The property's history includes the Revolutionary War confinement of British Gen. Richard Prescott and Loyalist NJ Gov. William Franklin. Structurally saved and engineered with new beams throughout, the 4,480 SF residence flawlessly unites 18th-century soul with 21st-century luxury. The home features seven fireplaces, original Georgian wood paneling, and a one-of-a-kind central staircase with original spiral-turned balusters. Hand-hewn beams remain exposed from 1685, complemented by reclaimed wood flooring in the kitchen and the deluxe primary suite, which boasts its own new full bath. A custom office features built-ins crafted from beautiful reclaimed wood. A spectacular chef's kitchen boasts professional BlueStar appliances, a Miele espresso machine, a two-zone wine fridge, and a butler's pantry. Outside, the property offers landscaped grounds, an expansive stone terrace with retaining walls, an authentic tobacco barn, and historic outbuildings. With all-new electrical, plumbing, full HVAC, and a Generac hookup, this tasteful renovation is fully complete-allowing you to simply move in and enjoy an impeccably modernized piece of history.
