Oliver Ellsworth Homestead
Oliver Ellsworth Homestead, Georgian architecture house in Windsor, Connecticut.
The Oliver Ellsworth Homestead features a symmetrical facade with five bays, two chimneys, and a central entrance protected by a gabled portico.
Built in 1781, this residence belonged to Oliver Ellsworth, the third Chief Justice of the United States and a key contributor to the Constitution.
The interior displays period furnishings and decorative materials that represent the lifestyle of influential families in late 18th-century New England.
The Connecticut Daughters of the American Revolution maintain the property and conduct guided tours by appointment throughout the year.
Thirteen elm trees were planted on the grounds to represent the original Thirteen Colonies, leading to the property's alternative name, Elmwood.
