“Having represented prestigious village properties throughout Litchfield County, this represents one of the most exceptional Victorian restorations we’ve seen in Lakeville’s center. The 1880s architecture provides irreplaceable character that cannot be replicated, while the recent high-end renovations including Wolf kitchen and Waterworks bath mean our buyers receive historic elegance without renovation headaches.
