Property Description
DRASTIC REDUCTION on this rare find! This c.1782 center chimney Colonial located on the Green in the heart of the Milton Center Historic District. Built as a single family dwelling in an era when Milton was bustling, it served the Hartford-Poughkeepsie stagecoach line as the Guild Tavern from 1833-1877. It has been a single-family residence ever since. There are 3 working fireplaces on the main level and one discontinued fireplace in the primary bedroom on the upper level. Wood floors and chestnut beams have not been painted or mistreated. Ceilings are high on both main and upper floors (8+ feet). An A2 survey of the 1.255 acre lot indicates over 400' frontage on Shear Shop Road. Also, over 400' of the very scenic Marshepaug River runs through the property. Automatic generator. Property is being sold "As-Is." Room sizes are approximate. The 2-story barn with 2-car garage is compromised and will need extensive repairs or replacement. It is left in place for the grandfathered footprint to aid a future owner and the town regarding permits for a rebuild or replacement. When viewing this property in person, please do not enter the barn/garage. ** This property may qualify for a CT State Historic Homes Rehabilitation Tax Credit up to $30,000. ** (NB A pink tape on a Shear Shop bush indicates the approximate boundary line.)
