Restoring a 1783 colonial farmhouse while preserving history

Posted on Thu, 20 Mar 2025 by midcenturyjo

The Washington, Connecticut Farmhouse, built in 1783, underwent a meticulous restoration to preserve its historic character. Carefully dismantled and reassembled, the structure was updated with energy-efficient systems while maintaining original features like three staircases and reclaimed oak floors. A modest kitchen addition complemented the historic design, while the restored brick chimney and period details created a warm, layered interior blending antiques with vintage and contemporary furnishings.
