Old Saybrook - Beach Property For Sale #1412802

Unique opportunity to live in the sought after Knollwood beach location. - Perched on a knoll with direct water access to South Cove in Old Saybrook, the expansive views of glistening water lift the soul. The lines of the house are reminiscent of a whimsical Normandy chalet cottage with the interior partially updated reflecting a modern sensibility. Local influences include a coastal river rock fireplace, oak hardwood floors, and a first floor enclosed porch with a wall of New England style pained windows that are echoed in the bedroom above. A first floor room tucked away in its own wing can serve either as an office or den, complete with slider to its private deck overlooking the water, or a 1st floor bedroom having close access to a full bathroom. A crow's nest hideaway via a spiral staircase is an extra special feature of this room. Part of Knollwood Beach Association, amenities include private beach, tennis, and clubhouse. Old Saybrook is 2 hours from NYC and Boston with a convenient Amtrak stop at the train station.
