Property Description
There are houses that have history, and houses in which history remains remarkably present. Set on six acres in the storied Litchfield County village of Norfolk, 16-18 Laurel Way is an exceptional country estate designed by Alfredo S.G. Taylor, the architect whose distinctive work is woven into the architectural identity of this quietly sophisticated corner of Connecticut. From the moment of arrival, the house reveals an extraordinary level of detail. The front entrance, framed by beautiful leaded-glass sidelights, sets the tone for interiors rich in craftsmanship, proportion, and character. Across an expansive 22 rooms, original architectural elements unfold one after another-handsome millwork, beautifully considered transitions between rooms, intimate corners, and grander spaces designed for gathering. Four fireplaces anchor the interiors, lending warmth and a sense of permanence to a house that feels both substantial and deeply personal. The scale is impressive, but it is the detail that gives the house its soul. Taylor's architecture was rooted in a sensitivity to place, and here the relationship between house and landscape feels particularly complete. Windows frame views of the grounds and gardens, while rooms open naturally toward the outdoors, creating the easy rhythm of a great New England country house. Beyond the main residence, six acres of mature grounds create a private world of lawns, established gardens, and quiet outdoor rooms.
