This looks to be an amazing home that has been poorly photographed. Even better is the neighborhood with some terrific looking houses.
Why would you have six baths in a house with only 1700 sq. ft.?

It’s an error on Zillow that I transferred to here, it’s really only 1.5 bathrooms.
Absolutely darling! And you’re right, Kelly, it’s a neat neighborhood!
Yeah, it has a great original look – kind of a Folk Victorian – but the photographer did a lousy job.
Textbook Gothic Revival cottage here built during the peak of its popularity (1840-1860) with a later (but still Victorian style) porch. While the original colors were probably more muted, I see nothing wrong with the color choices as they are always the owners’ prerogative. Wilimantic , CT is also known as a favored destination for Victorian architectural lovers. The town also embraces the Victorian whimsical spirit with the Frogs statues on the town’s bridge that I’ve seen in some photos. My only reservation about buying a home there would be the property taxes which seem uniformly high throughout the state of Connecticut. I hope to visit Wilimantic with a camera in hand sometime in the future.
Willimantic is a not very big old mill town that had a bad reputation which killed local real estate prices. Not surprisingly a large Hispanic population has moved in, now 40%. The good news is there’s a state university, the town is cleaned up and there’s lots going on, the taxes are reasonable for the Northeast, and crime is at half the national average.

I think this is charming. I love the exterior pastel colors. It works well for this home. Yes I wish the interior pics were better. I do love the diamond shaped windows. 🙂
