Wallingford (Central), Connecticut

The charm of New England is in this Queen Anne Victorian bed and breakfast mansion.

This beautiful Victorian landmark, 19th century Queen Anne, is ideally situated between Hartford and New Haven. Built by a silver baron for his daughter’s wedding gift, the house was denied no possible embellishment; from complex masonry chimneys and finials capping hipped slate roofs, to small latticed balconies, a soaring tower and stunning lead windows.

Currently operated as a quite successful bed and breakfast, the house incorporates four separate suites, each with private bath and three with separate sitting rooms. Also included is a 2-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath apartment, with galley kitchen, dining area, living room and latticed porch.

Features:

• Quiet parlors
• Sunlit alcoves
• Large curved windows
• Tiled fireplaces
• Tall french doors
• Magnificent dining room with massive oak moldings, and a grand staircase.
• Kitchen is large, new and fireplaced.
• Jacuzzis
• DSL internet connections.

Located right in the heart of downtown, it is steps from the prestigious Choate Rosemary Hall Preparatory School, across the street from the library and within walking distance of cozy cafes and restaurants, a book store, antique shops, and within a mile or two of world-class entertainment, as well as a charming winery right out of Napa Valley! Twenty minutes from New Haven, twenty-five from Hartford, it is within minutes of all major thoroughfares.
