About This Home

Contemporary coastal elegance meets exceptional privacy along South Cove in Old Saybrook. Set on an extraordinary 1.8-acre parcel, this cedar-sided, 3,188-square-foot residence offers breathtaking water views from nearly every room and a setting that is virtually impossible to recreate. Originally built in 1965 and thoughtfully rebuilt in 1991, the home was designed to capture its spectacular surroundings with vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. The living room showcases custom built-ins, a gas fireplace, wet bar, and sliders to a spacious deck overlooking the cove. The kitchen flows into a well-appointed family room and opens to a 300-square-foot enclosed porch, an ideal space for entertaining and relaxation. The main floor primary suite is a private retreat with soaring ceilings, deck access, stunning water views, dual bathrooms, and an impressive 120-square-foot walk-in closet. A formal dining room, additional bedroom, and separate laundry room complete the first floor. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath, providing comfort and privacy for family and guests. Set well back from the road, this exceptional property provides the perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. Whether enjoyed as a year-round residence or a legacy waterfront retreat, the setting offers endless opportunities. Properties of this caliber, acreage, and waterfront presence are extraordinarily rare. A true heritage property and a once-in-a-generation op Please do not access property or drive down the driveway without listing agent present. Thank you!
