Description
Historical background
documents from the turn of the century show this house, which was built in 1870, as part of the springer estate. in 1922 it became the property of ira r. springer and his wife, rachel fielding hutchinson springer. rachel, a playwright and local theater director, was the daughter of charles henry hutchinson, author of chronicles of middletown, and a direct descendant of george fisher, middletown’s founder. since rachel’s death in 1952, the house has had a variety of owners. in recent years it underwent back-to-back foreclosures. the bright and cheery home was purchased in 2008 by dana elzi who has renovated much of spacious interior, replaced its many windows, and made it cozy with a blanket of insulation and a modern
heating system.
