William Burr House Candles Light Home for 170th Holiday Season

Candles in each window pane, evergreen garlands around the entrance, and a handsome Christmas tree in the parlor bring passersby back in time 170 years as the William Burr home, built in 1851, prepares for another Christmastime season. Located on Long Lots Road, the Italianate style home is one of several on the historic stretch of roadway that marks Westport’s historic past and remembers its most notable figures.
