1750 Colonial with Many Updates in Sharon
Including a romantic, two-story library with its own loft.
On the market for the first time in more than 40 years and built solid in 1750, 8 Mudgetown Road in Sharon is one of those classic Litchfield hills houses, a pre-United States Colonial with lots of updates on a quiet road, close to Mudge Pond and the town beach, sitting on its own 12.84 acres. The property is also near the iconic Twin Oaks field, part of the Sharon Land Trust.
The main home features four bedrooms and four and a half baths and 3,838 square feet, with a great room with 20-foot ceilings and a massive stone fireplace, a library with exposed antique beams and its own balcony loft, and a formal dining room attached to a sunny kitchen. And yes, in the house, there are exposed rough-hewn wood beams, probably original or close to it, plus period wallpaper. Above the detached two-car garage, there’s a separate 600-square-foot guest apartment, and there’s a huge stone patio wrapping around the back of the house.
8 Mudgetown Road is listed for $2,350,000 by Graham Klemm at Klemm Real Estate Inc.
