35 Maiden Ln, Durham, CT 06422

The best of both worlds - a successful melding of the modern and the historical to bring you a graceful and gorgeous home just off of Main Street in Durham. The Curtis Homestead, circa 1756 was built on what was known as Governor's Farm and rooted on 3.89 acres. This Saltbox Colonial had a brilliant addition in 2012 that preserved old-world detailing and introduced features of the favored modern-day farmhouse. A recent renovation is nothing less than stunning! The great room is spacious and offers flexibility for all living styles and showcases a two story stone fireplace with wagon wheel lighting fixture. The gourmet kitchen incorporates farmhouse elements with honed granite counters, refinished butcherblock and stainless appliances. The master suite is second to none with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and a luxurious master bath. The historic portion of the home preserves the wide-plank floors, raised paneling and beehive oven. In addition to the exceptional finishes, the mechanicals are updated with a new 4 zone hydro heat and central air system, new propane heater and new well pump and pressure tank. And the outside won't disappoint with beautiful stone patio and cracklin' fireplace. For many, especially a car enthusiast or collecter, the new 3,000 sq ft (50'x60') garage/barn will seal the deal. With custom cupolas and lantern lights, this beauty features three oversized doors and a 25'x60' garage area with new concrete floor. Truly a one of a kind home and property!
