Property Description
Step back into the grandeur of yesteryear in this gracious Georgian brick colonial built in 1939 for the American novelist and children's author Anne Parrish and her husband, author and editor, Josia Titzell, originally on 125 acres. After Anne's passing in 1957, the Scott sisters (of the Scott Paper family) purchased the home and donated much of the land to the Redding Land Trust, now known as Scott's Preserve. Today, this storied estate includes both the elegant main residence plus the charming, ca. 1800 cottage on 7.81 acres with 2 ponds, surrounded by over 200 acres of Redding open space. The main home offers 4,620 sf, 4-5 bedrooms, and 4/1 baths with all original details including front to back foyer with sweeping stairway, 7 fireplaces, butler's pantry, green house, idyllic screen porch, flower cutting room- even a secret stairway to the 2nd floor sitting room/library off the primary suite. The elegant formal living and dining rooms, both with fireplaces, open to the extensive brick terrace overlooking the most impressive gardens featuring Magnolias, Wisteria, Dogwood, tree Peonies, and more. The second floor offers 3 full bedroom suites, each with it's own fireplace and private bath. In addition to the attached 2 car garage, there is also a detached garage, garden shed, and the 1,162sf, two story cottage with living room, dining room, kitchen, 3 BRs & full bath with it's own septic. Of note - slate roof with snow guards, wrought iron balcony, central air, & generator.
