Description

Located in Haddam's Historical District, The Samuel Kelsey House dates from the early 19th century. A classic Federal/Greek Revival style home, you enter the home through a lovely foyer with a petite half bath tucked under the stairs. To the right is the living room with the original, working fireplace and wide-board floors. The foyer leads to the formal dining room with hardwood flooring and an adjacent room with fireplace that has most recently been used as an office. The kitchen and family room are a newer addition with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, a sky light, center island and a Yodel Wood Stove - it produces incredible heat! The laundry is conveniently located in the kitchen. Patio doors lead to a field stone patio. This room has hardwood flooring and a rear stair case up to a loft. There are 3 bedrooms and a full bath upstairs. The primary bedroom also has a fireplace. There is a full walk-up attic. The large barn with concrete floor and a loft that can hold all sorts of lawn equipment or perhaps be the home for some wonderful furry friends! 2 acres provides lots of opportunity for a gardening enthusiast or a respite from the hustle and bustle of life. The library and senior center are all within walking distance and Haddam Meadow State Park and the gorgeous Connecticut River are but a minute down the road. More photos to come! Various updates over the years include roof replacement on primary structure in 2007, roof on rear of structure and barn replaced 2018, vinyl windows installed 2008, new leaching fields for septic in 2005. There is original, unfinished wide plank flooring under the carpeting in the primary and smallest bedrooms. We believe the same flooring exists under the middle bedroom carpet but cannot confirm.
