2 Bushy Hill Rd, Ivoryton, CT 06442

This is the Historic 1903 Elizabeth Chapman home situated in the quaint village of Ivoryton. For over 85 years this home stayed in the same family. The current owners purchased the home from the family and dedicated themselves to the care and enhancement of the historic charm. Set on a 1/3 acre corner lot, the grounds are charming and feature stonewalls, fences, colorful perennial gardens, meandering walkways and a one car garage that was added in 1932 from lumber left from the house. Stepping back in time you enter the front door to a beautiful period curved staircase, honey colored pine floors throughout, wide baseboard trim and period mouldings. The main floor is home to the formal living room, family room, formal dining room with built-in corner cabinet, spacious eat-in kitchen, mudroom and 4 season porch w/ventless gas log stove. The second floor features four bedrooms and a full bath, plus walk-up attic that could easily be finished to more living space. Important updates to the home include the electric panel, new furnace 2017, the kitchen and bathroom plus a new roof is 2014. This property is a short distance to the Bushy Hill Nature Center, Ivoryton Playhouse, library, restaurants and the summer farmer’s market. It is hard to accurately describe the charm this home features both inside and out. It is a must see property!
