History

The Burr Mansion was designed by architect Edmund M. Wharf as an Italianate-style house, with a French Second Empire-style mansard roof.[1] The house is three-story tall wood construction with a brick foundation and basement.[4] It was commissioned for Ephraim W. Burr as a wedding gift for his son Edmond Coffin Burr (1846–1927) and his fiancé, Anna Barnard (1847–1920), and was built between 1875 and 1878 on a 12,535 square foot lot.[4][5] The Burr Mansion sits on one of the largest parcels of land in the city, which has a cottage and garden.[2] Burr's daughter Alice (1883–1968) exclusively used the garden cottage.[6]

The mansion served as the Humanistic Psychology Institute (later known as Saybrook University) starting from 1970/1971.[7] The house was restored and renovated from 2000 to 2003 by the English firm Smallbone.[5] In 2009, the property featured a wine cellar, a media room, and exercise room.[8]

In 2022, the house was placed for sale on the real estate market for US$12.9 million, with a 7,077 square foot interior with 6-bedrooms and 4.5-bathrooms.[5]
