Richly Detailed Victorian Mansionette Just Off the Village Green

Nestled just steps from the heart of historic New Milford, Connecticut, this stunning 1870s Victorian—refined in 1896 into the richly detailed mansionette it is today—offers a rare opportunity to own a home of unmatched character and craftsmanship. The house retains its original charm while benefiting from meaningful updates, including a slate-look roof, an upgraded kitchen with quarter-sawn oak cabinetry by The Kennebec Company, renovated bathrooms, a stone terrace, and a fenced formal Victorian garden. With Bradbury & Bradbury handprinted wallpaper throughout, the home feels more like a time capsule than a renovation project—every room reflecting the elegance and depth of a bygone era.

What we love most about this house is that it feels like stepping into a different era—but one that still fits beautifully into the present. Every room holds a sense of intention and craftsmanship, from the high ceilings and ornate woodwork to the quiet dignity of the Bradbury & Bradbury wallpaper that seems to glow at dusk. It’s a house that rewards attention. We’ve spent years carefully restoring and updating it, not to modernize it, but to let it be fully itself—comfortable, yes, but with its soul intact. The location is just as special. Nestled in a walkable historic neighborhood just minutes from the center of New Milford, it offers a rare mix of privacy and connection. You can stroll to the green for concerts or farmer’s markets, grab coffee at a local café, or take a short drive to hike in the hills or kayak on the Housatonic. It’s a lifestyle that invites both reflection and community—quiet mornings, meaningful routines, and a deep sense of place. What makes this home truly unique is how complete it feels—not just as a structure, but as an experience. It’s not a house that needs to be filled in with imagination. It already tells a story—you just have to step in and become part of it.

Offered with its period-appropriate furnishings, this home is as much a curated experience as it is a residence. Whether you envision it as a private retreat or a space with professional potential, this property invites the right steward to step into a living piece of history.
