About This Home

As of February 2025

Live in the heart of charming historic Old Saybrook center. Steps away from Main Street, The Kate Theater, farmers market, town green, library, schools, shops and restaurants. Short walk to train station with Amtrak and Shoreline East service. At the end of the street take in gorgeous harbor views at the town's kayak-friendly boat launch. This 1920's gem oozes charm, starting with its arched front doorway that invites you into a spacious and sun-filled home. The main level featurs a cozy living room with hardwood floors and an adjoining office/den. The open floor plan flows seamlessly into the kitchen with granite countertops, modern cabinetry, and a breakfast bar. A dining area leads into the oversized great room, complete with hardwood floors, built-ins and a fireplace. A full bath is conveniently located on this level as well. Upstairs you'll find a roomy primary with a full bath, three additional bedrooms and an additional room that's ideal for an office, nursery, craft room, or a walk-in closet. A third full bath rounds out this floor. This home combines classic character with modern updates, including renovations to the kitchen, baths, flooring, heating system and 200 AMP service. Don't forget the detached one-car garage!
