LOCATION
With its tree-lined streets, interesting shops, cozy
restaurants and stately 18th & 19th century homes,
Stonington Borough is widely considered the most
picturesque seaside village in Connecticut. Located at the
Connecticut/Rhode Island border and situated on a narrow
peninsula surrounded by the sea, Stonington has long been
renowned as a major sailing center - and with its scenic
and sheltered deepwater harbor, it is also home to
Connecticut's last remaining commercial fishing fleet. The
area also offers beautiful beaches, golf courses and
tennis, and many popular visitor attractions including the
Mystic Seaport, The Mystic Aquarium, summer agricultural
fairs and a wide selection of good summer theatre.
PROPERTY
Hidden away on a quiet side street near the southernmost
tip of Stonington Point, this dramatically beautiful
waterfront property enjoys 176 feet of sparkling shoreline
that includes a small sandy beach and a sturdy deep-water
dock. Privately enclosed by a high garden wall, the
property offers lush lawns and gardens featuring a
fountain, perennial flower-beds and espalier fruit trees.
A large wrap-around patio sports great water vistas
looking out across Little Narragansett Bay to Napatree
Point and the ocean beyond.
