WELCOME TO Marrin Santore Realty, LLC Let us welcome you to Litchfield, a quintessential New England town, steeped in history and tradition. Home to America’s first Law School, founded in 1784, and The Litchfield Female Academy, a school of higher education for women founded in 1792. Litchfield was designated Connecticut’s first historic district in 1959. The vast majority of the elegant and substantial homes that line the borough streets and outlying areas are still preserved today as single family residences. One of our local jewels is the White Memorial Foundation, a 4,000 acre wildlife preserve dedicated to the environmental conservation of its beautiful land. White Memorial is open for the public’s enjoyment of its Museum, campsites, streams and many trails. Much of Bantam Lake’s shoreline and Bantam River tributaries are on White Memorial land. Bantam Lake is the largest natural lake in Connecticut and encompasses over 900 acres.
