Property Description
Standing as a captivating testament to its rich history. Originally acquired by the Booth Family in the mid-1800s, the house boasts a distinctive wrap-around porch. Despite town records mistakenly dating it to 1912, its true historical significance becomes evident upon closer examination. In 1907, the property transitioned to Carrie Booth & Nicholas Winblad, ushering in a new chapter. The adjacent barn, an integral part of the estate, showcases classic post-&-beam construction & tells its own story. In 1984, Russell & Barbara Hartz undertook a meticulous restoration journey, enlisting artists to revive the barns' ext adorned w/ antique RT25 advertisements, revealing its former life as a working farm. Hartz was committed to preserving its historical essence. The historical significance is deeply tied to Monroe's early settlement, originally part of the Thomas Hawley home, a circa 1755 saltbox across the st., a National Historic Registry landmark. The Hawley house was a thriving farm, linked to Monroe's earliest settlers. The David Booth homestead, integral to this history, features an 18th-century kitchen w/ charming Bennington Pottery doorknobs. The smaller barn's advertisement for "C.H Bennett For Boots Shoes" in Bridgeport reflects an era when shoes sold for $2.75 in 1857. The larger barn proudly displays "Foster, Besse & Co," a clothier in Bpt that opened in 1877. Meticulous restoration, unique doorknobs, & antique barn signs, it offers a chance to own a piece of history.
