Historic, Stately Vernon Victorian Put On The Market

VERNON, CT — An historic and stately Victorian home in Vernon's historic mansion district went on the market Monday night — the Barber home on Davis Avenue.

The home is not small — it measures more than 4,000 square feet — and is preserved to period, save for the modernized kitchen.

There is a slight discrepancy on the home's origin. The listing puts construction at 1900 and the Vernon Historical Society name plate credits Ralph Barber, circa 1896. Nothing could be found on Barber during a quick search Tuesday morning.
