About 1696 Main Street
Step into a timeless piece of New England history with the Jehiel Hale House, a distinguished 1795 Colonial, gracefully sited on Glastonbury's coveted Main Street. Meticulously preserved and thoughtfully updated, this 3,495-square-foot residence seamlessly marries 18th-century craftsmanship with modern comforts. Rich in architectural detail, the home features wide-board floors, exquisite original paneling, and six working brick fireplaces-two with rare beehive ovens-all accented by the extraordinary use of King's Pine throughout. Three spacious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a powder room offer both elegance and functionality, while recent updates- including a new roof, central air, a Buderus boiler, and a freshly painted exterior-ensure peace of mind. A versatile bonus room above the garage, complete with a full bath and dry bar, provides the perfect flexible space for a media room, office, or fourth bedroom. Set on over an acre of beautifully maintained grounds, the property includes a fully functioning historic chicken coop and a charming barn with space for two vehicles. Enjoy a premier location just a short stroll from Glastonbury Center's acclaimed dining, shops, and scenic riverfront. A rare opportunity to own a remarkable piece of the town's heritage, where historic character and modern living coexist in perfect harmony.
