A Treasured Piece of Cornwall Center

A quaint bit of Cornwall is not far from the village green. 9 Jewell Street is a graceful 1780 Colonial farmhouse set on nearly four private acres, with lots of original historic details and thoughtful additions, creating a classic New England home with timeless presence and modern adaptability. 

Approached through mature plantings and lawns that open to wide views, this 2,758-square-foot residence offers four bedrooms and 3.5 baths with rooms that feel both intimate and grand. Original features—6-over-6 windows, eyebrow panes, and traditional clapboard siding—set the architectural tone.

The heart of the home flows from the eat-in kitchen to generous living and dining spaces, including a dramatic room with soaring ceilings and another wood-burning fireplace built for gatherings with friends and family. On the first floor, two ensuite bedrooms provide comfort and convenience, including a primary suite that serves as a peaceful retreat. Upstairs, a large flex area, two additional bedrooms, and common bath complete the second level.

Outside, the landscape feels like a quiet country garden with a classic red barn, a pond that attracts local wildlife, and bluestone patios that extend living to the outdoors. Whether enjoying summer evenings among hydrangeas and magnolias or exploring the surrounding Northwest Hills countryside, the grounds provide a quintessential Connecticut backdrop.
