ATTENTION: INVESTORS or those who wish to occupy & collect rents! Rarely found 3 family plus historic barn in the heart of the WORTHINGTON RIDGE HISTORIC DISTRICT. This Late Georgian Circa 1789 known as the Nathanial Cornwell House was converted to a multi unit dwelling many years ago and is situated on a private 2/3 acre lot adjacent to the historic church & walking distance to schools. Since the current owner acquired the property, many improvements & updates have been completed some of which were done in 2021. There are 2 units occupied with annual leases. Each unit has multiple private entrances and decks, and one unit has a second private deck connected to a bedroom.3 separate gas furnaces in 2007 when the property was converted from oil to gas. Roof was installed in 2016 &all new windows in 2018. All apartments have modern kitchens and all bathrooms were remodeled in 2021. The original charm of this historic home is still present and shines through w/chamfered posts, wide board floors, fireplaces and the oversized Victorian barn which is featured in Historic Barns of Connecticut & is considered an "English Bank" barn. The barn has ties to the old Berlin Playhouse, a semi professional acting group. A new barn door was installed in 2021. All city utilities & efficient natural gas too. The yard has an abundance of green space area with a border of mature trees& creates a scenic view from all the units. Convenient location for commuting to Hartford or New Haven.
Parking for 6 cars in the yard plus additional parking and extensive storage space in the barn. See www.connecticutbarns.org The barn in the rear has historic ties to the old Berlin Playhouse, a semi-professional acting group (included Russell Gold and his wife who had ties to the Pasadena, CA playhouse - and lived in the Berlin Hotel on the corner of Wildem Rd). They put on half a dozen shows a year here in Berlin, and were a big deal in the 1930s-1950 era. They started out in the barn, then moved to Brandegee Hall (The Old Town Hall on W. Ridge) stage.
