About this home

Step into history at the Deacon Robert Peckham House, located in the Westminster Village-Academy Hill Historic District, a short distance to the heart of the community, village green and town center. Best known for his portraits of children, Peckham was a painter in the folk-art tradition and his paintings are featured in museum and private collections throughout the United States. A leader in the abolitionist movement, his home was once a stop on the Underground Railroad. This unique home offers the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience. It features meticulously preserved 19th-century architecture, including a restored winding staircase, exposed beams, fireplace mantels, wainscoting, paneled doors, and moldings. A well-integrated addition seamlessly adds modern comforts - 2 car garage, mud room, 1st floor laundry, and brick patio surrounded by nature, perfect for entertaining outside against a backdrop of lush perennials, mature bushes and trees. Easy access to Rt 2!
