Property Description
This exquisite example of Italianate architecture is one of the most magnificent historic properties in downtown Stonington built circa 1860 by the renowned Palmer family and just a short walk to the award-winning village restaurants and shops. The dramatic interior of this stately mansion features many impeccably-maintained architectural details including soaring eleven foot ceilings, extravagant crown moldings, marble mantels, and original hardwood floors.
Perfectly suited as multi-generational family compound for full-time living or summer vacations, the main home has a guest house and an in-law apartment both of which could also be used as a home office, studio, or au pair suite. The fabulous in-ground pool provides uninterrupted water views and three acres of professionally landscaped grounds assures the ultimate in privacy and exclusivity minutes from Stonington Village and just a short drive to the famous Rhode Island town of Watch Hill. The detached three car garage and original barn offer plenty of opportunities for additional expansions and living space.
This is truly a one-of-a-kind historic property, rich with history, sensitively restored to maintain the original period architecture, yet combining the modern living amenities that discriminating buyers expect.
