About This Property

DIRECT WATERFRONT home: amazing river views from every room! A perfect place for your primary residence or a weekend retreat. The home was orig. built in 1900 (the area that now houses the living room) & was occupied for many years by Anne Commire, an American playwright & editor. Anne was inspired by the Oswegatchie Colony & Eugene O'Neill Theater & spent many hours writing in this home. The boat/fish shed still bears the name of Anne's boat, "ROSIE". Since then, there have been renos (the town notes the 'effective year built as 1996), making it the lovely home you see today! 3 floors of living provide spaces for all your needs. The main OPEN floorplan offers a renovated kitchen with an eat-in area, a living room, foyer and bath. The upper level offer 3 bedrooms including the master with vaulted ceilings, 2 closets & a large window looking over the Niantic River & bath. The lower level provides a rec-room with French Doors leading to a patio, a laundry room, workshop, storage & a bath.
