About This Home

As of October 2025

Stunning 1857 historic Victorian-era home on a hilltop overlooking the Mystic River and the Mystic Seaport beyond. Also includes a small parcel across Bindloss abutting conservation land and fronting a pond which connects via culvert to the Mystic River. This special project awaits your vision, architect and builder. Located at the corner of Bindloss & River Rd on the Groton side of Mystic. A rare combination of village charm on nearly an acre of land with a sweeping circular driveway and two outbuildings. Passed down in the Bindloss family from 1857 until 1956, at which time it was purchased by a local artist and his wife as their home, art studio and gallery. Extensive repairs and renovations are needed. The bones are incredible - this is not a tear down. Interior has high ceilings, large windows, large rooms and will be a gracious jewel once restored to it's former elegance. House needs new mechanicals, appliances and most likely well and septic upgrades. Complete gut renovation required - value is in the land, location and historic structure. Construction loan or cash only. Please do not walk the property without your buyers' broker and the listing broker. Property is offered AS IS.
