Rare opportunity to purchase one of the most significant and recognized mansions in Seymour. The main house, in need of total restoration, was built in 1900. Despite extensive vandalism, it still retains its original architecture and ornate features. Pull your car or carriage through the porte cochere and step onto the breezy wrap-around porch; and prepare to step back in time. The first level of this magnificent mansion has a main parlor featuring a large fireplace; built-in glass door cabinets on each side, hardwood inlaid floors, coffered ceilings, a stunning curved bannister stairway and ornate entry into the second parlor. The next parlor features dual fireplaces on each end of the room, hardwood floors, original lighting fixtures and archways. The formal dining room has built-ins and the original tin ceiling. Beyond the dining room is the most magnificent, ornate and architecturally intact ballroom ever imagined. The ballroom has soaring coffered ceilings, plaster pilaster that must be seen to be believed, an alcove with fireplace, original lighting sconces, ceiling fixtures and stained glass window. Walking into this room, you can just envision hearing the music of a bygone era and seeing the formal attire of the guests. Several more rooms are on the first floor. A large kitchen with the original stove and porcelain sink and secondary stairway to rear of second floor. Closets and built-ins throughout the home too numerous to mention.
