HPX-March/April 2009-c1830 Farmhouse & Barn – Historic District - Washington, CT
Classic c1830 gutted farmhouse & dilapidated barn
located within the Calhoun-Ives Historic District. This is a seminally important property, which
is one of the last unspoiled properties in the district. The property contributes hugely to the
historic agricultural character of the district with its simple vernacular farm
buildings. The historic commission is
concerned for the imminent loss of these historic structures, which are facing
benign neglect. The commission would
like to see these buildings restored to preserve the rural character of the
farm and the Calhoun-Ives streetscape.
