An award winning Bed & Breakfast with 3 separate residences and 8 guest rooms set on five park-like acres overlooking the Connecticut River and Haddam Meadows State Park. The main house was originally built in 1765 of post and beam construction and was featured on HGTV's If Walls Could Talk. In 1932, famous novelist Katharine Brush purchased the property and moved the house 400 feet back off Saybrook Road and added 2 wings. The residence lives like a sophisticated home of the 1930's with stunning lines and generous rooms. That same year, she built the famous Laurel Cottage, originally a writers retreat, it sits on a promontory above the state park and river. Located down a pine needle path, the 1 bedroom, 794sf pristine cottage was completely restored and added on to recently, complete with a full bath and kitchen. In 2010, the main house underwent an extensive renovation. The 5 bedroom, 2658sf colonial is completely updated with the finest finishes and modern mechanicals. The Carriage House was built in 2015 and features a 2 bedroom, 1 bath home on the upper level equipped with a full kitchen, living room and 904 sf of living space.
