About This Home
As of March 2026An opportunity for a year around costal leaving, close to downtown and beach. A Refined Coastal Estate in the Heart of Old Saybrook, Connecticut. Set on nearly an acre along a tranquil tidal inlet leading into the Ferry Point Marsh Wildlife Management Area, this coastal estate offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and enduring craftsmanship. A true retreat, where every element has been curated with care and intention. Inside, the layout is designed for effortless living and entertaining, living room, a formal dining room, a first floor primary bedroom with in-suite full bathroom, and a spacious kitchen with ample room for gathering, cooking, and connection. There are also additional 3 bedrooms on second floor and full bath, family room on main level, partially finished basement. Step outside to discover newly constructed decks, custom trellises, and professionally designed gardens that offer moments of color, privacy, and quiet reflection. Several garden vignettes invite pause, including one tucked behind a wrought iron gate-perfect for morning coffee, bird watching or evening wine under the stars. Enjoy access to Saybrook's town beach, water park, and recreational courts. All this, less than five minutes to downtown, The Kate Theater, fine dining, and shoreline boutiques. Timeless, graceful, and deeply rooted in Old Saybrook's coastal ecology, this is a rare opportunity to own a legacy estate in one of Connecticut's most beloved coastal destination.
