Additionally, the house features high-end hardwood floors throughout most rooms, providing durability and aesthetic appeal. Radiator heating provides comfortable, consistent warmth without the noise or drying air issues that can come with forced-air heating systems.

Your comfort and satisfaction during your stay are my top priorities. Quiet and peaceful neighborhood, within walking distance to local market bakery, bars, brewery, and restaurants. In 1840, artisans built this house in the Federal architecture style, which was popular in the United States from the late 18th century to the mid-19th century during the Federal period. This style combines classical and neoclassical architectural elements, emphasizing symmetry and balance in design. Its most recognizable features are a central front door with sidelights and a fanlight above. Evenly spaced rectangular windows with semicircular arches surround the door. Federal architecture also incorporates decorative elements, such as ornate moldings, dentils, and friezes. The house, constructed primarily of wood, boasts multiple brick chimneys. High ceilings, grand staircases, and formal rooms are adorned with decorative moldings and millwork. As you explore this house, you'll experience the elegance, simplicity, and distinct sense of balance and harmony that characterize Federal architecture.

For the safety and security of our guests and property, this home is equipped with an exterior security camera. This camera is located at the front covering the driveway, garage, and kitchen door entrances. No cameras monitor any interior spaces.

Great stay and location

My family of multiple generations spent the weekend here while participating in my high school reunion. The house was a great space and my kids especially enjoyed the toy room and outdoor swing set. Thanks for having us!

Great place for a family gathering!

We had 9 people across 4 households stay here for a wedding. The house easily accommodated us all with bedrooms and bathrooms. Lots of sitting areas for conversations and a large dining room table and kitchen for meals. The screened porch was very popular! The house has a very historic feel, and has lots of nice touches. The owners were very prompt with communication and checking in was easy. The checkout rules were reasonable and on par with other places we have stayed.

Peaceful and historic

If you are looking for a quiet and historical place in New England, Thomaston may be the place just for you! It's a charming town in Connecticut that offers a glimpse into the history and nature of the region. Our hosts communicated well with us and left the house ready and prepared for our arrival. Overall, a great visit and hope to return again sometime next year! Jacob

Beautiful historic home

Found this beautiful home for my daughters bridal party. I was very pleased and it exceeded my expectations. I am so excited to see the photos that were captured there the morning of the wedding! The home is appointed with every amenity that you would require to feel comfortable. The owners communication was excellent and prompt. The home has so much character, is quite large, and very well maintained. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us!
