The relaxed yet sophisticated villages of Lakeville and Salisbury comprise the town of Salisbury, incorporated in 1714 and located in Connecticut’s bucolic northwest corner. This rural Litchfield County community is home to many fine restaurants, antique shops, specialty retail stores and art galleries. Throughout town are beautifully maintained and preserved older homes and structures including those comprising the Lakeville Historic District and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The village of Lakeville was once known as the “Furnace Village” because it housed one of the earliest blast furnaces. Lakeville’s real estate market is popular with buyers seeking a strong sense of community and graceful living amid unspoiled beauty.
Lime Rock Park, located in the Lime Rock section of Lakeville, hosts numerous racing events throughout the summer. The racetrack was, for decades, a hangout for the late actor Paul Newman, an avid racecar driver who was often seen competing there in his GT-1 Corvette. Racing segments of the 1990 movie “Days of Thunder,” starring the blue-eyed movie star and co-stars Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman and Robert Duvall, were filmed at Lime Rock Park.
