Welcome to the Doctor’s 1781 House on the Green in the Litchfield Historic District, a registered lamdmark. We are thrilled to share with our guests this beautifully preserved 1781 house and gardens in Connecticut’s quintessential colonial village. Located among historic homes and buildings and across the Green from Litchfield's charming restaurants and shops, walk in the footsteps of Washington, Tallmadge, Rochambeau, Henry Ward Beecher and Harriet Beecher Stowe and other luminaries of America’s beginnings. Litchfield County offers several charming tourist features. Known for its scenic beauty and historic significance, Litchfield attracts visitors with its picturesque countryside, fall foliage, colonial architecture, and cultural attractions. You can explore the charming Litchfield Green, a historic village green surrounded by well-preserved 18th-century houses and churches. The town is also home to the Litchfield Historical Society, which showcases exhibits on local history and offers informative tours. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy the natural beauty of the area by hiking in (or getting married at!) the nearby White Memorial Conservation Center or exploring the rolling hills and serene lakes. Litchfield hosts various cultural events and festivals throughout the year - art, jazz, flowers, vintage cars - adding to its vibrant charm.

Comfortable, cozy, well appointed and nicely furnished colonial house on the Litchfield green. Short walk to all local shops and restaurants. Perfect for your weekend visit to beautiful Litchfield!
great location right in the center of Litchfield! You can walk to everything. The home is beautiful and the gardens are very pretty. Lots of parking and even an outdoor patio area.
Our family group of eight was warmly welcomed and delightfully accommodated in this historic and comfortable property. The host was very responsive and helped to make our stay extremely enjoyable. We hope to return next year.
Hal greeted us and gave us a tour. Checking in and out was easy. The location allowed us to walk to eating places. The weather prevented us from fully enjoying the beautiful outdoor space, but we had a great time anyway.
What an incredible stay in Litchfield! Sisters weekend at our 70th camp reunion on Mount Tom Lake! This property is fantastic.. Wonderful, clean, gorgeous accommodations in an historic building with all of the modern amenities. WALK across street to village green/shops/restaurants! So comfortable and best sleep I've had in months! Host was amazing and responsive and we can't wait to go back!
This was a wonderful place to stay for 4 nights while we were in town for my mother's funeral services. Having grown up in Litchfield I wanted something in the center of town so I could walk to restaurants and the coffee shop. It was clean, luxurious, and eccentric. Loved it!
This property is wonderful! The location is ideal both for shopping in Litchfield and visiting other towns. The property owners are absolutely amazing. Our flight got in late so we arrived late and Hal met us at the walkway with a lantern to make sure we could find everything. He gave us the complete tour and history of the house. He and his lovely wife made us feel like family throughout our stay. We wish it had been available for our whole Christmas holiday, as we would definitely continued our stay! We would love to come back and stay here again. Great place for a family!!
