Just a stone's throw from the bustling modern downtown of Bristol, CT, appears the Federal Hill Historic District - a snazzy neighborhood featuring some of the most swanky 19th and early 20th-century homes you'll lay your eyes on. Thanks to a split from its sibling city Farmington way back in 1785, this neighborhood was once reserved for businesses that had it made. One house that catches the eye like a peacock amidst a flock of pigeons is the Beleden House. This handsome chap was built in the 1900s, rocking Beaux Arts architecture – the district's crowning glory.
