Experience the old world charms of exposed beams and wide-board flooring, in this 19th Century structure that was once home to one of Woodbury's most prominent textile families!

Lots to see and appreciate at this unique property in Connecticut's Most Charming town according to Reader's Digest Magazine. Known as the Thomas Dawson House, John and Lewis Dawson married the daughters of Ira Thomas, a prosperous local farmer, in a double wedding. Legend has it that the twin trees on the property (one recently succumbed to a storm) were from this time. The Dawson brothers numbered five, and their family rejuvenated the textile industry in Hotchkissville in the mid-to-late nineteenth century. Please see attached National Register of Historic Places write up for the Hotchkissville Historic District. This house is a "contributing" resource within the district. The business next door used to be an associated outbuilding.
