Presenting the Munsill Borden Mansion at 2 Wethersfield Avenue, Hartford-a rare opportunity to own a Gilded Age masterpiece. Constructed in 1893 for Mary Borden Munsill, daughter of Gail Borden, inventor of condensed milk, this architectural gem seamlessly blends Queen Anne Victorian and Richardsonian Romanesque styles. Spanning 7,727 sq. ft., the mansion boasts seven grand fireplaces, intricate crown and dental moldings, wainscotting and exquisite stained glass windows. The exterior is adorned with gingerbread trim and a slate roof punctuated by turrets, reflecting the craftsmanship of its era. Situated in the historic South Green district, once home to the Colt family, the property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. While currently utilized as office space, it offers the potential to be restored to its original residential grandeur. The property is also within an Opportunity Zone, enhancing its appeal for investment. A newly paved parking lot, completed in September 2025, provides modern convenience. This mansion is a testament to Hartford’s rich history and architectural elegance, awaiting a discerning owner to preserve its legacy. Property can be purchased with 14 Wethersfield Ave, Hartford as a potential condo development investment project.
