About this home
1542 Main Street: A Gothic Revival Masterpiece with a Modern Heart. If you've lived in Glastonbury, you know the Frank Potter House. Built in 1878, this isn't just an "antique" home; it's a local landmark that perfectly balances its historic Gothic soul with every modern luxury you actually want. From the moment you step onto the front porch (yes, the porch swing stays!), you can feel the history. Inside, the high ceilings and original character are everywhere-like the stunning stained-glass window in the dining room and a unique curved wall in the upstairs hallway that you just won't find in modern builds. The current owner has poured love into this house since 2009, so you don't have to.Like the Chef's Kitchen: Completely brand new with stainless steel appliances and a top-of-the-line 5-burner Thermador gas cooktop. The Primary Retreat: A total remodel featuring a classic claw-foot soaking tub for the ultimate escape. The "Harry Potter" Bath: A clever and stylish half-bath remodel tucked under the staircase. The Sunroom: This bright space now features hardwood flooring and 8 brand-new windows, perfect for morning coffee. This home lives larger than its 2,916 sq. ft. suggests. It features a back staircase for that classic New England feel, second-floor laundry for convenience, and a cozy small library for your collection. Outside, the yard is a private, fully fenced oasis with an underground sprinkler system to keep things lush....
