Orange, Connecticut Historic District

Parcel 25
575 Orange Center Road

This side door federal style shingled house, formerly clapboarded, was built prior to 1810. The interior includes three open fireplaces on the ground floor and one on the second. The original paneling and cabinets remain around the central fireplaces, and there are original pine floors throughout. It was restored in the 1950's after being almost completely destroyed by fire.

An addition on the north side was once used as a Post Office, and a hitching post is still in place at the front of the house. An attached barn on the east side collapsed during the hurricane of 1938.
