All Gone: 151 Long Lots Road

The house at 151 Long Lots Road, built in 1952 and sitting on a 1.6 acres, was demolished today. The property, which changed hands in October for $835,000, was the WestportNow Teardown of the Day on Nov 17, 2006. The new owner lives on an adjacent property known as the Joseph Jennings House which was built in 1871 and is on the list of Westport’s historic house inventory. The owner said she and her husband purchased the neighboring property to prevent any developer from building an “oversized house” on it and plan to keep it as open space.
