“#Mark Twain’s final home lists for $4.2M in Conn.<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Mark Twain\u2019s final published story, \u201cCaptain Stormfield\u2019s Visit to Heaven,\u201d tells the tale of a man whose dreamy idea of the celestial kingdom is upended when he arrives. But perhaps the Connecticut home where the famed writer spent the last two years of his life \u2014 and a property that\u2019s named after that story \u2014 can be someone\u2019s paradise.<\/p>\n

A Tuscan villa-style spread in the Fairfield County town of Redding, which Twain \u2014 born Samuel Clemens \u2014 built and resided in until his death in 1910, has listed for $4.2 million<\/a>, the listing brokerage told The Post. <\/p>\n

Named \u201cStormfield,\u201d the 6,300-square-foot property is aptly located at 30 Mark Twain Lane, and sits on 28.53 acres adjoining a 161-acre land trust.<\/p>\n

The mansion gets its Tuscan look thanks to Twain\u2019s extensive travel<\/a>s in Italy.<\/p>\n

Twain\u2019s original home burned down in 1923, years after his death. But builders constructed a new property on the grounds in 1925 \u2014 retaining the home\u2019s terraces, stone walls, stone pillars and gardens.<\/p>\n

The main house has space for a fifth bedroom, five full bathrooms, a powder room, as well as three fireplaces. Listing images show Italian touches, such as a coffered ceiling, a foyer with arched ceilings and oversize windows that offer good exposure to natural light. Other touches include a formal dining room that looks out to a stone terrace and the lawn and, naturally, a library.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, there\u2019s a carriage house with second-floor, two-bedroom guest quarters and, down below, three garage bays for parking. There\u2019s also a heated Gunite pool.<\/p>\n
