Property Description

Welcome to one of Newtown's most iconic homes-where TIMELESS ELEGANCE meets unforgettable charm. Built in 1888 by New York City railroad director I.B. Harris and his wife Jane Glover Harris, a proud Newtown native and descendant of one of the town's founding families, this grand Victorian masterpiece is a living piece of local history. The home's stunning three-story tower with curved glass windows and its gracious wraparound porch set the stage for the remarkable beauty that awaits within. Every inch of this home tells a story. From its handcrafted details to the soaring ceilings, the heart of the residence is undoubtedly the breathtaking leaded stained-glass window at the staircase landing-a larger-than-life depiction of a peasant woman in vivid color. With 6 generously sized bedrooms and 3.5 beautifully updated baths, there's room for both grand entertaining and comfortable living. The chef's kitchen has been thoughtfully renovated, featuring high-end appliances. Outside, discover a private sanctuary, lush gardens, fruit trees, and a sparkling in-ground pool. The detached, oversized three car garage offers endless possibilities for storage or a workshop. This home has been lovingly maintained, with a new wood roof and countless thoughtful updates. This is a rare opportunity for anyone who would love to live in the Newtown Borough with city water, sewer & natural gas heat. Don't miss your chance to own a true architectural gem, steps from everything Newtown has to offer!
