Driving Directions

A rare Georgian treasure awaits in the quintessential New England town of Bethel, CT. Built in 1775 at the height of the Revolution, this distinguished colonial-crafted by Squire Nathan Seeley for his family of sixteen-remains one of the area's premier historic homes. Thoughtfully restored to modern standards, it blends original character with today's comforts, including central air installed two years ago, a new 200-amp electrical panel, and an exterior professionally painted three years ago. Wide pine plank flooring, exposed beams, 7 brick fireplaces, cathedral ceilings, built-ins, and classic colonial windows guide you from room to room. The first floor is ideal for entertaining, highlighted by a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, slate flooring, prep island, and its own fireplace. The bright and inviting family room features a pellet stove, bread oven, and a stunning picture window that floods the space with natural light-bringing the outdoors in and creating the perfect spot for morning coffee, afternoon reading, or simply enjoying the beauty of the surrounding landscape. The formal dining room offers rich wood accents, a gas fireplace, and charming views of the historic church across the way.

A new roof (2021) rounds out the updates, making this a ONE-of-a-kind opportunity filled with charm, heritage, and enduring New England appeal.
