About This Home
Welcome to 26 College Street, a Nantucket-style haven nestled in the heart of historic Old Saybrook-a coastal village where charm meets convenience. With five spacious bedrooms and three full bathrooms, including a fully private in-law or au-pair suite, it's tailor-made for families or couples looking for multi-generational living, rental income, or a dedicated home office setup. Tucked between downtown Old Saybrook and scenic Saybrook Point, this home places you right in the middle of shoreline life-walk to shops, restaurants, marinas, and even the town's lighted pickleball courts. Whether you're strolling to the beach or heading out for a sunset bike ride, every day here feels like a vacation. The brand-new 20' x 20' garage, crafted by a top local builder, is EV-ready with a 100amp subpanel and also powers the included hot tub for year-round relaxation. Indoors, you'll love the gas fireplace, recent mechanical upgrades including a two-meter electrical service, new chimney flashing, and a high-capacity hot water heater-all making life here not just beautiful, but efficient.Nearly an acre of fully fenced-in grounds gives you room to spread out, garden, entertain, or just enjoy the peaceful sound of the koi pond. An outdoor shower and greenhouse complete this private backyard oasis. If you're looking for coastal charm, modern comfort, and the option of a legal accessory apartment, this rare Old Saybrook offering might just be your perfect next chapter.
