Welcome to one of the most charming communities in Connecticut. This darling of an antique home sits in the heart of Woodbury, CT. It is a Dutch colonial dating to circa 1700, bought in 1750 by a well-respected, wealthy local merchant/ financier, Jabez Bacon. The building became the town's first general store, known as the Red Store. After Bacon's death, the property served as a school and later as a tavern. Daniel Curtis a direct descendant of one of the founders of the town of Woodbury, bought the dwelling as part of a homestead in 1831. Since then, it has been home for only a handful of families. In January of 1934, the house was featured in an issue of American Architect for its design and modernizations. Recent updates have not spoiled the historic character of this truly charming residence. The original hand-hewn beams, stone fireplaces, wide planked floors, beautiful Dutch doors, stone floors are only a few distinctive aspects of this house. The original Tomahawk door greats guests to this treasure of a dwelling. Rock away sunny afternoons or moonlit evenings on the spacious front porch. New HVAC system and roofing in 2022. The bright, newly updated kitchen and bathrooms, spacious living and dining rooms, and cozy bedrooms are all welcoming living spaces. The property is surrounded by beautiful mature trees, shrubs and flowers. A stroll in any direction will take you to a town park, restaurants, shops and churches. Don't miss out on this unique antique
