Description

Fall in love with this Grand Shoreline Treasure. This Charming & Spacious Circa 1885 Antique New England Farmhouse perched high above a wonderful scenic land & seascape with wonderful water views is sure to unlock your creative ambitions. Come bring this beauty back to what she wants to be. Open and bright with period details and character throughout, plenty of spacious rooms, 9' ceilings, graceful stairway, floor to ceiling windows, large enclosed vestibule and farmer's porch. Outside there's a beautiful stone wall that envelopes the property with twin stone pillar driveway entrance, large level yard with mature trees thoughtfully placed not to impinge, abutting open space. The home is currently configured and can function as a two family with separate utilities but could essentially be transformed into a wonderful luxurious single-family manor. Several updates have already been completed. Treat this as either an income producing two family, live in one side & lease out the other or occupy the entire home as your own spacious residence. One side is now ready to move in. The property is in Residential zone, however the Waterford zoning Customary Home Occupations provisions suggest potential other uses such as home handicrafts, dress making and tailoring services, artist, realtor, insurance agent, woodcraft, marketing services, photographer, professional consultant, architect, engineer, surveyor, accountant, attorney or appraiser; subject to zoning review.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "Not like route 32 nearby. I’m always afraid my dogs will get loose and hit by a car. The neighborhoods are nice and the Conn college arboretum is down the road, so that’s a nice place to go and walk your dogs"

    "Some dog owners in the area let their dogs off leash and have little control over them. For shy, small, or aggressive dogs, it is a problem and caution is needed. But everyone is also very understanding of dogs and dog owners and everyone cleans up after their pets well! Very few cats as well."

    "Good area frequently patrolled by police, many dead ends and closed off neighborhoods which means no thru traffic for the most part. Myrock Ave, specifically does have a busy street during workday hours however, the cable company always has CL&P trucks on stand-by during storms so we never lost power in the 5 years between 20010-2015. Family neighborhood, kids walk to the end of the street for the bus safely without incident. Police run radar from the dead end occasionally, they really don't do it enough and the street should have a stricter speed limit or physical alterations to help control the occasional speeding car. Waterford residents tend to look out for each other in general if you haven't lived in the town before, having lived in 4 areas myself over my lifetime. This may boarder New London, however it is a good section of the city and has wonderful residents responsible for up to $1M properties so do not worry, both areas of both municipalities are above average nowadays in CT. With all of this being said, some of it not said enough, investing in this general area isn't a bad idea, we made a great gain on our home and have moved on to another investment. "

    "Grew up visiting the Strand with family. I have rarely lived on a street where everyone knew everyone's name and you would meet your neighbors as you walked to the beach in the morning. It is very unique - and I brings me back to a simplier, better time of life."
