A gracious 1802 brick Federal Georgian located in Goshen is one of the finest examples of the classic style in Litchfield County. Known as Birdsey Hall, the former home of notable mercantilist Birdsey Norton, the 6,719-square-foot house has six bedrooms, an elegant kitchen, media room, grand sitting rooms, a formal dining room and eight fireplaces. Gardens, porticos, terraces, a tennis court, pool, pillared entrance gates, apple and pear trees, stone walls, horse paddocks and trails are just a handful of the amenities on the parklike 74 acres. The property also includes a four-bedroom, garrison-style homestead built in 1773, now a restored guest house overlooking a stone-walled vegetable garden and a wildlife preserve. Listed for $3.995 million by Elyse Harney Real Estate.
