587 Taugwonk Road
Stonington, Connecticut

Description:

Offering a rare blend of lifestyle and income potential, 587 Taugwonk Road is a distinctive Stonington property with a legal accessory dwelling unit and multiple versatile outbuildings. Set on 1.72 acres, it offers an appealing opportunity for buyers seeking a weekend retreat, future full-time residence, or property with supplemental rental income. The 1936 farmhouse retains its vintage character with built-ins, a breakfast nook and wood-burning fireplace, while newer siding, windows and major mechanical updates add important improvements. Owned solar arrays power the property, resulting in no electricity cost. Separately sited from the main house, the fully insulated unfinished 561-square-foot guest cottage is a legal ADU - ideal for short or long-term rental income, extended family, guests, or a private workspace. For buyers dividing their time between Stonington and a larger metro area, the ADU offers an attractive way to offset ownership costs while maintaining a private coastal-country escape. A heated detached garage/workshop, original dairy farm "milk house," and classic red timber-frame barn with two lofts add even more flexibility. The barn offers exceptional potential as a gathering or entertaining space. Convenient to Stonington Borough, downtown Mystic, Westerly and Rhode Island beaches, vineyards and golf, this is a property that can function as a retreat, an investment, or both. MAIN HOUSE IS 1684 SQFT AND THE GUEST COTTAGE IS 561 SQFT
