On the weekend you could make the ten-minute trip to Suffield to enjoy another piece of Connecticut heritage.nnThe oldest parts of the Phelps-Hatheway House, on the southern ell, are from the 1730s, but the house was extended throughout the 18th century, with what is now a central block in the 1760s and a northern ell in 1795. This gives the property a sprawling aspect, with each section capped with a genteel gambrel roof.nnThose final changes were designed by architect Asher Benjamin early in his career, and ordered by the wealthy land speculator Oliver Phelps.nnThe interior is enriched with a superb collection of 18th-century antiques, and outside is a formal parterre and a generous herb garden, all sprinkled with flowering shrubs and tended by the Suffield Garden Club.
Such an interesting mix of 1700s simplicity in one part of the house and much higher 1800s style in another portion. The wallpaper in the newer part is worth the trip! And the moderate-sized garden is lovely when in full bloom...
I am a wedding photographer and Della Bella Photography highly recommends this venue. This historic location offers a great house for brides to get ready, a ceremony location inside and out, and a rustic location for your reception. The hydrangea trees are amazing on this private property, and the old building provide a great backdrop.
Nice and interesting!
Photographed a friend's wedding at this historic location. Amazing secluded place to host your private event or simply unwind during the day off.
