About this home
The Lane Farm Estate is sited magnificently on the cusp of Litchfield, Hartford & New Haven Counties. This 1773 sprawling home with later additions balances museum-grade American history with sophisticated design language and high-performance. Guests are welcomed by a breathtaking black & white marble foyer with reclaimed wide plank heart pine flooring, a 50' windowed turret and original details throughout the showstopping Grand Salon, leading to the kitchen and sun-drenched dining area. Set on park-like grounds with an enormous 1753 hand-hewn timber-frame barn with a full cathedral loft, twin gazebos, and a perfectly graded backyard with rich soil, and established vegetable gardens. Rare legal R-50 multi-family zoning grants the unique right to utilize 3 kitchens into independent luxury dwellings, or enjoy as the current owner has, as a main home with an in-law. There's central AC and a 400-amp service with a Kohler auto-transfer generator. Once the ancestral home of Millicent and Nathaniel Lane-aunt and uncle to legendary author Louisa May Alcott- Louisa's father, the famous Transcendentalist philosopher and author Amos Bronson Alcott, was born and raised right down the road on Spindle Hill where she visited following the success of Little Women. The very name of Spindle Hill originates from the rhythmic whirr of spinning wheels processing flax into linen cords on this site-famously used for weights in the early clocks crafted by Wolcott-born, Seth Thomas.
A legal 3 family home, most recently used as a single family with the in-law apartment....
