We have some prime weeks remaining for summer 2024.
This lovely family vacation home has 5 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms (one with a claw foot tub) and a spacious open kitchen with a 6-burner Garland range. The renovated kitchen is fully equipped with Vitamix, blender, lobster pot, pots and pans, spices and a variety of cook books - all that you need to cook elaborately or throw together a quick meal.
Amenities include a hot outdoor shower, a large, screened porch with ping-pong table and wicker furniture, 1/4 acre lawn (croquet!), and an outdoor dining and seating area with a Big Green Egg charcoal grill.
Stairs lead down past a hut with beach chairs and umbrellas to a private beach (shared by three surrounding homes) that boasts beautiful sunsets and a cool sandbar at low tide.
The neighborhood has quiet streets (speed limit 20 mph) for morning and evening walks, runs or bike rides. There are many nearby hikes, including Eleanor Roosevelt's summer place about a mile away!
The Westbrook Outlets and Clinton Crossing Malls are minutes away. The Casinos and historic Mystic Seaport (and Aquarium) are 30 minutes away. Also nearby are the Ivoryton Playhouse, the Goodspeed Opera House, the Essex Steam Train, Gillette Castle, Rocky Neck State Park, Hamonesset State Park and Chamard Vineyards.
Easy access to the Westbrook, Clinton and Old Saybrook train stations (Shoreline and Amtrak trains to New York City or Boston).
