Description
Ready to move to Bethlehem Recently regarded in World Atlas Magazine for one of CT's top places to visit Imagine owning this stunning antique home that is rich in history Known as The Bloss house built in 1740 by Thomas Leavenworth, housed young Yale law students, among those was one John C. Calhoun before he made his way to the White House as VP in 1824 under John Q. Adams. Residential and Commercial zoning, this property has amazing opportunities. The home and barn have been lovingly restored. Close to $1M in restoration costs to save this stunning property. The almost 300 year old home offers much of its original charm. The kitchen alone boasts a 12 foot long stone that serves as a hearth for the original brick beehive oven and a large Colonial pantry is adjacent to the kitchen with plenty of space to expand your culinary dreams. The original wide planked chestnut wood floors lead you into the authentic Keeping Room that is filled with sunshine from the porch windows. A family room and an office/den resides from there as does a full updated bath. Leading down the grand hallway into the foyer you'll find the Parlor room with its well preserved hand carved mantle framing one of the four fireplaces on the first floor. The large staircase leads you up to the primary bedroom with a sitting area outside, right now being used as a music room. 3 more bedrooms are on the second floor as well as 2 other sitting rooms, a shared full bath, and closets in every room.

A Viesmann furnace and hot water heater efficiently maintain the temperature throughout the 3 heat zones in the house. They run on propane from the commercial sized tank that is buried in the yard. All new siding and foam insulation throughout most of the house was installed in 2012 and the chimneys were rebuilt exactly as they had been in 1740. All roofs were replaced by the current owners as well. The house on its own is a historical gem, but the property also has the beautiful post and beam barn that is individually listed on the National Registry of Historic Places.
