Property details

About 160 Saybrook Rd

Just outside of Essex Village, this exceptional piece of sub-dividable property includes an Antique Colonial and 12.69 acres of rolling hills with water views out to the Connecticut River. The house sits on Saybrook Road across from South Cove and enjoys some rear and side-yard privacy. The home has had many recent updates including a new roof, a recently drilled well and exterior paint. The rear yard runs adjacent to and enjoys frontage on Essex Hills Drive up to the top of the Cul de Sac on Squire's Lane, creating the possibility of perhaps using almost the entire combined frontage of both roads to create and easily access up to 6 additional lots. This setting and location would support building luxury, water-view homes within a short distance to Essex Village, a commodity readily in demand! There is enough land to create a horse property with entrance through the existing property and keep the parcel whole to privately enjoy acreage no longer available this close to the Village. Possibilities abound! Property is occupied and all showings, including walking the Town Assessors Map Depicting the Lot bordering Essex Hills and Squire Lane to top is attached. Appointments required to walk acreage need confirmation as large, protective dog is in residence and needs to be removed. See Single Family Listing MLS 170612922 for additional house pictures.
