As one of the largest parcels in the protective Gateway Zone, you are granted 15 per building coverage....Situated in Old Saybrook's most protected and prominent corridor, 18 Old South Cove Road provides the rare opportunity to Renovate or Custom Build a "Legacy Estate" where privacy and scenic integrity are guaranteed by zoning. Currently home to a classic 1,569 Sq. Ft. ranch built in 1964, the true value of this Residential District A property lies in its exceptional dimensions and unique possibilities. As one of the largest parcels in the protective Gateway Zone, you are granted 15 per building coverage. This translates to a massive potential footprint of approximately 2,744 sq. ft., allowing for a custom build that far exceeds the scale of neighboring homes. And by leveraging the 35-foot height scale-up freedom (2.5 stories), you have the rare opportunity to capture dramatic, unencumbered panoramic water views of South Cove. Nestled within Old Saybrook's elite Gateway Zone, this oversized .42-acre parcel presents a rare "Conservation Luxury" setting where low-density zoning protects your views and your investment. With Residence A designation, this lot is the perfect foundation for a 4,000 sq. ft. legacy home featuring a 3-car garage and open coastal verandas. Experience the prestige of the Gateway District-where the shoreline's character is preserved, and high-end estates thrive.
