Spring into a piece of Connecticut & Danbury History with the famous Octagon Home built by Daniel Starr in 1852 following the precepts of octagon houses laid out by Orson Squire Fowler in his book A Home for All, all the way to the use of concrete as the main structural material. Marvelous designed home is considered the best octagon house of those that survive in Connecticut. Currently in use as a three family home with (2) two bedroom units and (1) one bedroom unit, the home has practically unlimited potential and space with over 3,800 square feet. Update to your own tastes and bring back to its former glory as of the many stately Danbury homes or use for investment income. Currently on the National Register of Historic Places!
