Property Information |
|
Sunny & Charming 6 bedroom 1910 colonial is 4 houses away from Private Beach with new kitchen, 2.5 baths (1 is newly redone), hardwood floors, stone fireplace, 1st floor washer and dryer, oil heat, new windows, and private beach rights on Long Island Sound. The house is four doors from the beach with a partial view of the water down the street.
COAST GUARD ACADEMY PARENTS
We are about 15 minutes from the Coast Guard Academy.
SUBMARINE SCHOOL FAMILIES
We are also about 15 minutes from the US Navy's Submarine School.
The first floor has two living room areas, dining room, new kitchen, and 1/2 bath. The dining room can seat up to 16. We just purchase a new dining room set that seats 10. By adding a second table we can seat 16. We also have a new set of dishes for 16 and linen table clothes for both tables. So, you can have a formal or casual dinner. By the way, this room is 30 foot long so there is plenty of room for the tables.
All rooms except kitchen and baths have hardwood floors. There is a small children's table that has two stools at the other end of the room. There is also another table in the backyard that seats 5. The other end of the dining room is a sitting area with a couch that matches the one in the living room.
Second floor has a recently remodeled bathroom and 4 bedrooms (2 queens, 2 fulls). Third floor has two bedrooms and a full bath. One bedroom is walk-through and is configured as a family room with a queen futon that will sleep two and a twin. The other has two twins.
Lounge Away your Stress on our White Sand Beach.
The home includes beach rights on private Neptune Park Beach which is a lovely white sand beach on Long Island Sound. From that beach you can look out on the open water and see sailboats, ferries, commercial shipping, fishing boats, an occasional submarine or tall ship, 2 lighthouses, and Long Island in the distance. You can also launch a canoe or kayak there. The beach has three distinct sections separated by rocks. One has a diving and sunning platform, another is a small cove, and the third is an open expanse of white sand. Sitting on that part of the beach, you can almost feel like you are in the Caribbean!
September is the best time at the beach, crowds are gone and the water is still warm. In the fall, winter and spring, take beach walks on the board walk. Or, enjoy a casino weekend or Thanksgiving and Christmas away from the city noise.
The Kids Won’t Be Bored Here, and Neither Will You.
They can play volley ball, miniature golf or video games at Ocean Beach Park which is just 1 block away. The park also includes a public beach, restaurant, health club, a bar with waterfront deck, ice cream stand, gift shop, nature area, boardwalk, concerts and an outdoor swimming pool. Or visit an 1839 fort at Fort Trumbull State Park which is just 5 minutes away. Name entertainers perform on the waterfront at nearby Harkness Memorial Park’s season long open air Summer Music festival. Next door to Harkness, you can experience live theater at the Eugene O’Neill Theater. Both are about 10 minutes away.
Tour a Nuclear Submarine, a Real Whaling Ship or a Vineyard
In 30 minutes or less you can be at the Mohegan Sun Casino, Foxwoods Casino, Mystic Seaport (tour old whaling town and authentic ships), Mystic Aquarium, the U. S. Navy’s Submarine Force Museum (tour a real nuclear submarine and simulators), the U. S. Coast Guard Academy, as well as the many fine restaurants. Or see a baseball game with the Norwich Navigators, the Double-A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants. There are also vineyards located north of Norwich. And you can take a fishing or sail boat cruise.
Tour Mansions of the Golden Era or go Yachting
Tour the grand old mansions of the Gilded Era (circa the Vanderbilts and the Astors) in Newport, RI, which is an hour away. Or experience the yachting lifestyle at America’s Cup Charters. Their Twelves all raced for yachting's most coveted prize, and three actually won the America's Cup. Participation is welcomed but not required! Get involved in the sailing or just sit back and enjoy the sunset on picturesque Narragansett Bay.
Boston and New York City are a few hours away
New London is a stop on Amtrak's new Acela high speed train line that runs from Washington to Boston. The trip is about 2.5 hours from New London to Penn Station in New York City. There is also access via Interstate Highway 95 and via ferry to Long Island or New York City. The drive to New York City is about 3 hours via 95, or 1 ½ from Long Island by ferry. It is about 2 hours from Boston and 1 hour from Providence. Newport, RI is also 1 hour away.
