Own a piece of history. This is a one-of-a-kind historic property located near the Village of Essex and within minutes of the nearby CT River and Long Island Sound shoreline areas. If you like the maintained old character of the original period with 6 fireplaces, detailed millwork trim throughout but with the updates of modern amenities like a modern chef style kitchen this is the property for you. The finished attic is a perfect office or hide away retreat area. The rear yard is private and perfect for relaxing. The location is convenient to the Old Saybrook train station for shoreline East, Amtrack or highway access to New York or Boston. Please come to view and see what your finishing touches can do to complete the restoration and make this your home.
