We invite you to step back in time and enjoy the splendor of yesteryear in this magnificent center chimney colonial listed on the National Historic Register. The house was built by Deacon Timothy Pratt in 1746 and served as a private school in the 1790?s. Timothy Pratt was a carpenter and served as a Deacon in the church across the street, thus it?s present day name. This charming home boasts many fine original details.
The elegant guest rooms are romantically furnished in period style featuring 4-poster/canopy beds, working fireplaces and/or jacuzzi whirlpool tubs, private baths, cable tv, stereo/cd players, phone/modem lines, AC.
