Located in a neighborhood of iconic Colonial Revival homes, this Litchfield landmark allows you to be part of local history. "Sunnymead" was built by Henry R. Jones c. 1840 and extensively renovated by the current owners, who skillfully reconfigured and modernized main living spaces and systems, while preserving the charm and classic details of an historic residence. The main level boasts a grand central hallway, sweeping staircase, lofty ceilings and light-filled voluminous spaces for formal entertainment and casual living. Upper level includes primary bedroom suite with fireplace, dressing room, full bath. Three additional bedrooms with newly renovated bathrooms, millwork and high-end decorative features. The renovated third floor includes recreational space, dual office, gym, media room and full bath. New roof, rebuilt chimneys, central air and updates to plumbing, electric and insulation complete the effort. Professionally designed landscaping with specimen trees and re-laid original Belgian Block masonry. Three classic porches and restored porte-cochere. Very desirable location among notable Litchfield residences. Walk or bike to restaurants, shopping, Litchfield Green, library, White Memorial and the Greenway. An extraordinary amount of effort, planning and skill went into restoring this impeccable residence.
