Imagine the summer with your family and friends in a stately historic home - Shore House - right on the water on the Connecticut Shoreline. A small tidal beach directly in front of the house and a bigger neighborhood beach with all the fun (concessions, playground, volleyball and basketball courts) is a 4 minute walk down the road. Eastern Point Beach is a small historic neighborhood and a hidden gem, halfway between Stonington and Old Saybrook, and a 10-minute drive to Mystic. Be right in the middle of the classic New England Coast without any of the crowds! Walk to a fabulous pizza place and awesome bar, attached to a Donald Ross-designed award-winning golf-course with spectacular sea views. Every room of Shore House has a view of the water and submarines and boats go right by your windows! Settle into one of the elegant and uniquely furnished rooms, with antiques and hand-crafted furniture from around the world; built in 1899, you will find a house like no other: beautiful and historic, but as inviting as home should be. Comfortable beds with memory foam and high-end cotton and silk linens. Sea breezes (and ACs!) keep the house cool all summer (the shore is 10 degrees cooler in summer and 10 degrees warmer in winter than inland.) 7 big bedrooms, all with closets, massive living areas featuring a baby grand piano, huge stone (working) fireplace, and porches that wrap around 3 sides of the house, all with water views. A spacious eat-in kitchen with foodie-friendly kitchen tools, spices, high-end pots and pans, and place settings for 12. There are 4 separate dining areas: a formal dining table for 10; a sunny round captain's table in the turret for 6, kitchen dining for 8, or sit outside on the porch at the handmade teak table for 8. As a former short-term rental, the hosts provide all sorts of extras: breakfast for the first week and plenty of goodies: snacks, staples and a full bar. This is also more of a European-style home with cloth napkins and placemats, fresh kitchen herb garden year-round, composting for food scraps (optional) and other environmentally-friendly practices. Weekly cleaning available at an extra cost. See the reviews!... Reviews: "Wow. I mean WOW! The most beautiful house I've ever seen."
