697 Noank Road

Tucked away on a private 0.835-acre hillside between Mystic and Noank, this historic 1910 residence, originally built for Ella Brigham in the Shingle Style, offers a rare blend of timeless character, modern updates, and a spectacular natural setting. Nearly surrounded by protected land, the property features trails leading from the grounds to multiple ponds, creating a peaceful retreat while remaining close to area amenities, restaurants, and the shoreline. This 2,796 square foot home includes four bedrooms, two full baths, and one half bath. The traditional front porch with fieldstone pillars welcomes you and overlooks beautifully landscaped grounds filled with mature plantings, including a magnificent decades-old rhododendron currently in bloom. Inside, historic charm meets modern convenience with an updated chef's kitchen featuring a gas range, granite countertops, and beautiful sandstone gray cabinetry. Additional highlights include attached two-car garage with a bonus room above, its own entrance, and a private deck - perfect for a studio, office, or guest space.
