579 Taugwonk Rd, For Sale in Stonington - eXp Realty

Built in 1750, "Stonecrop" has been called one of the finest examples of a pre-Revolutionary colonial home in Southeastern Connecticut. Located in beautiful Stonington, high on a park-like country yard with several stone walls, beautiful gardens, it is only a few miles from I-95 and Stonington Borough, and just up the road from Stonington Country Club and Stonington Vineyards. This is a rare opportunity to purchase and continue the preservation of a unique historic home. A gravel drive turns through a stone wall to a 3-car detached garage with workshop and loft and a large side yard. The post &amp; beam home is anchored by a massive center chimney serving 6 working fireplaces and has many original features such as a large cooking fireplace with crane &amp; beehive oven, exposed &amp; finished beams, wide board floors, period cabinetry, many panes of original glass, huge granite stone entry steps, and a cedar roof. While preserving much of its original character, modern updates include a center island kitchen with soapstone &amp; stainless steel countertops &amp; tile floor, a master bedroom suite with dressing room, and bathroom with double sink vanity &amp; jacuzzi tub, a 2nd floor laundry with sink, a 3rd floor studio &amp; bonus room. There are full bathrooms on all 3 floors and central air conditioning. In 1790 a 2-story ell and large stone patio were added to the back of the house, and today the ell houses the main kitchen and an approved 1-bedroom apartment. (24 Hour notice requested.), The apartment has a seperate entrance, kitchen &amp; bath on the 1st floor, an open ceiling bedroom &amp; loft on the 2nd. It has its own heating and cooling system and is perfect for rental income or care-giver/in-law accommodation. Lease on apartment rental is up May 31st and will be renewed on a month-to-month basis. Tenant is to be given 60 days notice to vacate. The property will be available for showings beginning April 7, 2025.
