166 Newent Rd, Jewett City, CT 06351

Description

Welcome to 166 Newent Rd, also known as the Circa 1740 Joshua Read Homestead, believed to be the oldest home in the Town of Lisbon. Set on a generous corner lot, this antique colonial offers a unique combination of timeless character and everyday comfort. Spread across three floors, the home offers far more than its 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms suggest. The first floor includes a multi-purpose room off the primary bedroom, previously used as a nursery. Upstairs, a great room and bonus room add flexible living space, while a walk-up attic tops it off with 2 additional finished and heated rooms, currently used as bedrooms. Throughout the home a center chimney and 5 fireplaces paired with exposed antique beams offer a rare, authentic window into 18th-century craftsmanship. The kitchen features a cathedral ceiling with an exposed ridge beam, sits just off the laundry room, and opens to a sun porch with its own private entrance. Outside you'll find an expansive yard perfect for relaxing or entertaining, a patio, a detached garage, a spacious shed for extra storage or workspace, and a driveway with access from both streets bordering the corner lot. Being sold As-Is.
