This Noank gem is nestled in a neighborhood that is steps away from Noank village yet close to downtown Mystic, offering all the amenities of a nautical community while also providing convenience. Best of all, enjoy glistening water views right from the large and airy front porch! Step inside to be greeted by a grand wooden staircase. You will find rich character and craftsmanship showcased throughout, including high ceilings and hardwood floors. The living room's expansive windows frame picturesque views of the yard and sea. A pocket door provides an open concept to the dining room. Well appointed kitchen in a wraparound style for your culinary needs. Upstairs water views can be appreciated from two bedrooms while the 3rd overlooks the spacious yard. Each room has ample closet space then another set of stairs that leads to an unfinished attic. This home has a brand-new roof (as of 9/9/24-see last 2 photos), solar panels, newer insulation and boiler. A jewel of this property is its sprawling yard filled with lush plantings,featuring an array of carefully curated native plants. Organic gardening techniques help to preserve the natural landscape. Another space to mention is the backyard shed, which has been converted to a flex space! So many possibilities with these spaces or enjoy them just as they are. Did I mention there is also an outdoor shower!? Don't miss the opportunity to make this historic gem w/ water views and enchanting gardens your very own!
