Moss Hill, Historic summer estate on Litchfield Road in Norfolk, US

The main structure features stone and stucco construction with half-timbered gables, incorporating Tudor Revival architectural elements across its two-and-a-half stories.

Built in 1903, Moss Hill represents the first of over thirty works by New York architect Alfredo Taylor in this Connecticut summer resort community.

The property exemplifies early 20th-century summer estate design with its large-scale stonework, wooden balconies, and Beaux Arts interior features.

The estate extends across 5 acres of wooded land, featuring multiple gabled sections and an eastward-extending wing from the main building structure.

The stone materials used in construction were quarried directly from the property site, creating a natural connection between the building and its environment.
