Because of its proximity to the water, this wonderful 1890 Captains home enjoys its own widows walk with its almost 360 views of the water! This Grand Dame resides on .80 level acres and is just across from Fort Saybrook Monument Park at Saybrook Point. from here the views down the Connecticut River and out to the mouth of Long Island Sound are just breathtaking! In its day I am sure this home was THE grandest of all the captains homes and even now, there are many local children that do not consider their Christmas holiday complete without traveling past at least once during the season to see the lights! In fact, the house was featured in Diane Smiths book, Christmas in Connecticut. The house has 3300 SF with 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. There have been many updates along the way including a whole-house automatic generator, newer siding, and windows, updated electrical and septic! Now she is ready for the next owner to come in and to do aesthetic improvements along with kitchen and baths. With these updates completed, the happy new owners can enjoy their summer poolside or out on the Sound sailing the day away!
