This area is designated to facilitate residential development. Located adjacent to the Saybrook Community and accessed off of Route 15 via Saybrook Road, this location can't be beat. A 4 bedroom, 2 full-bathroom colonial currently sits on the property along with a detached 2 car garage as well as a 6-stall horse barn. The home is currently split into 2 apartments: a 2nd story 2-bedroom apartment and a 1st floor 2-bedroom apartment. Both spaces complete with a full kitchen, full bath, washer & dryer hook-ups. The home has been well maintained - a newer roof and boiler allowing for longevity and the possibility to convert this home back to a Single-Family home or work it into your development plans for a subdivision. Permitted use in this area includes Single Family, Duplex, and Multi-family dwellings and much more (see attachments). Access to town sewer & water allow for even more possibilities. The convenience of this location can't be overstated - shopping, walking paths, and entertainment all within minutes. Interior photos coming soon!
