Killingworth Connecticut

Description:

This Killingworth farmstead has been well-loved over the centuries! The antique, center chimney colonial circa 1790, was the home of Chauncy and Jerusha Parmelee. The versatile floor plan includes a legal second floor accessory apartment which adds the possibility of potential income or just comfortable accommodations for inlaws or guests. The ten room home features wide board chestnut flooring, three stone fireplaces, boxed-in corner posts, original interior doors with Norfolk latches and, of course, the charm and character of an antique home throughout. The current layout of the first floor features living room, formal dining room, a Gedney design galley kitchen, a breakfast room, sunken den/bedroom with wood stove and cathedral ceiling, a bedroom and full bath. The second floor accessory apartment layout features a living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom, a full bath and laundry area. One can imagine the home used as a single family home with three/four bedrooms & possibly converting the 2nd floor kitchen into a large laundry room. The outbuildings include a barn used as a two car garage, the additional 26x26 historic post and beam barn-perfect for a hobbyist or housing animals (either your own or income producing boarders!), corn crib and small greenhouse/chicken coop/workshop building. Located close to the center of town and across the street from the town owned Parmelee Farm with community gardens, hiking and horseback riding trails, summertime concerts and events.
