Gilbert Heublein founded a successful alcoholic beverages company in the late 19th century. It was sold to R.J.Nabisco in 1982. The Heubleins' winter home on the West Hartford side of Prospect Avenue is for sale for ~$620,000 . . . a pittance in many other real estate markets.
The Heubleins' summer home in a tower atop Avon Mountain has been featured here many other times. Here is one such post. My family has always loved hiking up to the tower to savor the views.
An attractive house; I like the fancy bits above the windows.
ReplyDeleteI didn't have the wind to finish my hike up Avon Mountain a few winters past. It was beautiful looking out over Simsbury though.
ReplyDeleteIt's a beauty, Jack! It would probably go for around $3 million here depending on the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteQuite a beautiful home.
