About this property

John Hollister home on the farm

It's rare to find a place that's both historic and one-of-a-kind. This is the oldest house in Glastonbury (built by John Hollister in 1675) & 1 of the oldest houses in CT. Our quaint home is located on our working farm that’s been in business for over 130 years - Killam & Bassette Farmstead. Take in a scenic stroll around the fields all the way to the CT River. Perfect for a bachelorette weekend, a large family vacation, or just a quiet getaway. Relax & enjoy!
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
