The Mercury’s take

The history of the group, and the oldest thing for sale in Farmington by nearly two centuries. Built in 1832 by the abolitionist John Treadwell Norton, this Georgian estate is on the State Historic District Register, was restored in 2001, and spans more than 11,000 square feet across two parcels, including a two-bedroom guest cottage.

A note on the count: Zillow lists 6 bedrooms, while the listing describes 8 plus the cottage, so treat the exact number as unsettled. Either way, at about $295 a square foot it is the priciest-per-foot estate here, the premium a provenance like this commands. It has been listed the longest of the six, more than a year.
