DescriptionThis home, The Pelatiah Leete House, is an impeccably restored jewel of American History for those appreciative admirers of what little remains from this era. Every inch of this large (3140 sqft) 1710 Saltbox has been respectfully preserved with clever and practical adaptations through the centuries. This is a home for those with a touch of romanticism in their heart, who feel moved by being passed the baton of ownership linked back to the time it was built, 23 years before the birth of George Washington! This English post and beam is encapsulated by (now extinct) mature planks of American Chestnut and has delightful built-in nooks, beams and purposeful antique details at every turn. The 31'x15' Living room boasts a massive jaw-dropping 'cooking' fireplace, with 2 beehive ovens within, for baking bread or warming food. The formal dining room with dreamy second fireplace, is directly off of the recently updated the kitchen, with 4 Carrara countertops, providing ample space for prepping and cleaning up after parties! Beautifully nestled on a high and dry knoll above Shell Beach Lagoon and Long Island Sound. The 6 distinct outdoor entertaining spaces ("rooms") have delightful gardens, mature landscaping and formidable stone hardscaping. This was one of the first CT structures to be added to the National Register of Historical Places, yet there are NO building restrictions. Walk to the beach, 5 min ride to shopping under 2 hours from NYC. Ask about option to buy mostly furnished.
