Built as a private residence by well-respected local builder Jim Cust, this custom 2001 Victorian sits just steps from the village on a quiet dead-end road, with southern exposure and elevated views of Stonington harbor and the islands. The builder's care shows throughout. Walk to the farmers market, restaurants, library, and shops, then come home to perennial gardens, raised beds, and a covered porch wrapped in roses and grapevines. The first floor has an open layout connecting the living, dining, and kitchen areas, with a half bath and a pantry/mudroom. The kitchen includes a gas range, and wood floors run throughout. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a full bath with laundry and a marble-floored soaking tub. The third floor opens to a sitting area with custom built-ins and harbor views, a versatile space that works as a bedroom, studio, or family room with an attached office. Thoughtful details run throughout: stained glass windows, fine woodwork, marble tile, and a wood stove. The home is energy efficient, with radiant heat on two floors, two thermostats, propane, central vac, and an automatic 200-amp generator. Southern light, harbor views, and an easy walk to everything Stonington offers. The work has been done for you on this in-town gem.
