Exceptional Contemporary Coastal Retreat-4 King Bedrooms Mystic Noank Groton CT

I am a native of Groton and a retired Special Education high school teacher. My husband is in Fire Protection and we have been friends for 40 years and married since 2012. We bought the farm property from “Miss Periscope”, my 96 year old Mother who was a Merritt and born on the homestead farm next door, where my grandparents, Francis and Althea Merritt, operated the property as a dairy farm. When they retired, they donated much of the land to build Fitch Sr. High School across the street, where my three brothers and I attended high school.

The farmhouse and barn, rolling meadows, and seasonal views of Long Island Sound make this the location for a vacation. Surrounded by 80 acres of hiking trails and public open space, yet centrally located with easy access to everywhere! Stain glass windows from The 1964 World's Fair Vatican Pavilion articulate the serenity of this 4 Bedroom/2 Bath Contemporary surrounded by the wooded open space, The Merritt Family Forest. Mystic Aquarium and Mystic Seaport, Mohegan Sun, Foxwoods Casino, Bluff Point State Park, Fort Griswold Battlefield, and The Avery Point branch of The University of Connecticut are all close by.
Amenities include central air, a gas fireplace, all new appliances and a washer and dryer. There is free cable and high speed internet. 2 Bedrooms and a bath on each level make this a perfect comfortable living quarters for a couples. There is more than enough private parking on the 5 acre site for an army!
