About This Home

As of July 2024

**Entirely new roof and wood sheathing completed June 2024. ** Welcome to the Henry S Chapman House, sitting proudly in Old Saybrook village since 1837, with an addition in 1881 by Charles Pratt. It's is a wonderful blend of old-world craftsmanship and modern amenities, such as all new windows, new HVAC, new roof, a new kitchen and a new primary suite. The first floor includes a timeless kitchen with custom Mouser cabinetry, GE Profile and Bosch appliances, radiant heat and Brazilian soapstone countertops. A large bay window looks out onto the back yard and is flooded with southern light. A wide cased opening extends the kitchen into the living room, creating a more current open floorplan. The living room includes a gas fireplace retrofit to the original woodwork, with a Colonial "warming drawer", historically used to keep food warm close to the chimney. Generous windows in the office welcome great natural light while a wood burning fireplace, wide-plank "King's wood" floorboards, and a wall of bookshelves add to the ambiance. The picture perfect dining room also has built-ins, a gas fireplace with the original detailed wood mantle, built-in bookshelves and wide-plank floors. The enormous family room has the feel of a renovated barn, with exposed rough-hewn beams, fan windows, a loft and new French doors that exit to the patio.

  • Remarks Public Addendum: At the top of the stairs, you are greeted by a built-in linen cabinet and hall closet, flanked by two bedrooms with matching original flooring. The bathroom was recently remodeled with new plumbing, tile and fixtures. When you enter into the generously proportioned primary suite, you'll notice the exposed brick carried up from the chimney below. Newly refinished floors still have the original character marks that you just can't find in new construction. The walk-in closet has plenty of room for storage, along with a convenient stacked washer/dryer. The primary bathroom has classic honed Carrara marble tile, quarter-sawn white oak cabinetry and an elegant Quartz countertop. Two large windows fill the room with natural light. The oasis of a backyard has two bluestone patios allowing for distinct entertaining areas with southern exposure and expansive flower beds. There is plenty of room on the level side yard for lawn sports or adding a pool. The property also features a 1-car garage and off-street parking for 3 cars. This is an exceptional opportunity to live in an historically significant Old Saybrook home, rumored to have been the original post office on the "Post Rd.". It's perfectly situated in close walking distance to the sought-after shops and events on Main St. while also feeling like a peaceful retreat.
