Designed in 1912 by noted American architect Addison Mizner, Rock Hall is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was the home of Jerome Alexandre, a descendant of the Alexandre Steamship Company. The manor home is located on 23 acres in Colebrook and has been meticulously restored so all the details of the Mediterranean Revival style (for which Mizner was known) shine through. The five-bedroom, seven-bathroom home includes an elegant great room, sun room, library, tea room with a secret paneled door that opens onto a Mediterranean-inspired patio, and a large chef’s kitchen with a walk-in refrigerator that adjoins the butler’s pantry. There is a repurposed third floor, which was originally designed as staff quarters that now has a home theatre, exercise room and a game room. The property has one of Connecticut's largest private collections of specimen trees, a free-form pool that spans 75 feet and a freestanding yoga studio. Listed for $3.195 million by William Pitt Sotheby's International Realty.
