101 Obtuse Hill Rd Brookfield CT

Around 70 years ago the Vice President of the F. W. Woolworth Company found Whispering Glen Farm and it was love at first sight. Many friends and family members have spent time here, the house has certainly been well loved by all. During war time the family grew a Victory Garden that fed local residents fresh produce.

For the history lover we are certain this house has a bigger story to tell. We understand a portion of the house could date back to the 1700's, but no one knows that for a fact. Perhaps you can uncover the secrets of Whispering Glen Farm while restoring the home to a more splendid state.
