Public Remarks

Seize the opportunity to own a piece of architectural and cultural history in Washington, CT. This distinguished estate, long connected to the Frisbie family, played a significant role in the transformation of Washington into a favored seasonal retreat for New York Citys business and arts community in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Originally built in the mid-1800s by Samuel Frisbie, son of Edward Frisbie, this Greek Revival home was relocated across the street to its current location and expanded in 1910 by the renowned New York City painter, sculptor, and writer Walter Russell. Under current ownership, the home has been meticulously restored, structurally repaired and thoughtfully expanded once again. As you approach the main entrance, youll be greeted by a walkway crafted from locally quarried granite and framed by majestic sugar maples. Step onto one of the two inviting colonnades and enter a home filled with natural light, featuring original oak and chestnut wide-board floors, exposed beams, and charming built-ins. With over 5,700 square feet of living space, the home boasts 14 generously sized rooms, including 6 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, a sunroom, library, and a guest/au pair suite. Three beautifully appointed fireplaces provide warmth and ambiance throughout. This exceptional property is available as-is or can be optionally completed to your tastes - ask agent for details.

The expansive grounds offer a blank canvas for you to create your dream outdoor living spaces. Rolling lawns, picturesque stone walls, and vibrant rhododendrons provide the perfect backdrop. Enjoy skating on your private pond or entertain guests overlooking the gunite pool. A separate barn with fencing offers the option for horse stabling, adding to the estates appeal. Dont miss your chance to fall in love with this extraordinary estate. Schedule to see it today!
