Bridgewater Home Watch’s Logo
The story behind our Bridgewater Home Watch logo. The house in the picture was featured in the du Pont Registry (1998). Alan built this beautiful and unique house for his in-laws in Newtown, Connecticut.
His father-in-law who loved and had second homes in Marco Island, Florida wanted to have a Floridian home in Connecticut. Granite and marble was adorned throughout the house including the flooring. This is the same house that is featured on our logo.
