Built circa 1670, this antique Saltbox in Norwichtown combines antiquity and the convenience of today. At one time owned by Surgeon General of the Continental Army, Dr. Philip Turner, this treasure is on the National Register of Historic Places and has received a Preservation Award from the local Historic District Commission. Recently painted and updated, this home offers a Unico gas/air conditioning system to keep you comfortably cool during hot, humid Connecticut summers. New furnace, first floor laundry, chestnut wide board floors, and period lighting fixtures. Charming kitchen features new appliances, including gas stove, and tasteful painted custom cabinetry. Wainscoting and fireplaces, one with brick bake oven, lend ambiance to parlor and keeping room. Lovely, newly-created full bath with Kohler fixtures on main level. Upper floor contains a spacious master bedroom which easily accommodates a king-sized bed and features fireplace and wainscoting, a full bath, a bedroom/office, and access to a cozy renovated third-floor, beamed attic bedroom. There is also a blue stone patio, a two-story barn (with electricity) providing opportunity for workshop/studio, a shed, a chicken coop, and almost 2 acres of land for recreation or gardening. A bit of country in the city! Located within close proximity to major employers, shopping, and Interstate 395.
