The Deacon Turner House built in 1849, is a timeless beauty on a corner lot, overlooking the Willington Green. This stunning Greek Revival Antique is in a Historic District and on the National Register. Modern enhancements have been added, while preserving its rich history & vintage character. Designed for Decon John Turner by architect Augustus Treusdel of Coventry and built by well-known local builder Emery Williams along with John Merrick, Joseph Clark & Anson Williams, the home boasts large rooms with high ceilings, a grand foyer with mahogany banisters, original oak, pine, maple and wide board floors, many built in shelves and a walk-in bedroom closet. There is also a lovely front porch with one side screened in to enjoy the yard. Outside you will find a flat sunny yard with a mulberry tree, and mature peach trees.
