Treat yourself to a genuinely unique experience in this luxurious six bedroom, six and a half bath rebuilt 19th century stone mansion overlooking Long Island Sound. Originally built in 1825 by Mystic banker Elias Brown the Stone House stood majestically atop Quoketaug Hill. Everything but the stonework burned to the ground in 1924. The family was finally able to realize their dream to rebuild it in 2016.
The formal living room with its marble-faced gas log fireplace offers a beautiful sitting area for quiet conversation, reading or watching television.
The dining room provides elegant seating for sixteen people. It too has a marble-faced gas-log fireplace. It is decorated with a beautiful collection of Japanese plates from the family’s years of living in Japan.
The gourmet kitchen features a 48” 6-burner gas stove with griddle and two ovens. The 3-seat granite topped peninsula area provides a work area with views of the verandah and Long Island Sound beyond. The kitchen is completely stocked with every cooking device required to create a gourmet meal. No need to tote things from home. A small breakfast nook makes a great place for early-risers to share a cup of coffee and watch the news. A Dutch door leads out to the verandah.
The 20’ by 24’ verandah offers alfresco dining in the warm weather. A gas grill is conveniently located just off the steps. Guests have easy access to the Garden Lot and wonderful views of Fisher’s Island.
