Charming 1845 Home in the Heart of Mystic – Walk to Everything!

Step into history without sacrificing comfort at our lovingly restored 2-bedroom home, ideally located in the heart of downtown Mystic. Just steps from the Mystic Museum of Art, Captain Daniel Packer Inn, and the iconic drawbridge, you'll be within easy walking distance of shops, waterfront dining, breweries, and everything else this seaside village has to offer.

Built in 1845, this Greek Revival home brims with character - think wavy glass windows, slanted floors, and steep old-world stairs - paired with thoughtful modern updates like fast Wi-Fi, HDTV, and efficient climate control. Guests frequently rave about our unbeatable location, cozy decor, and excellent communication.

Upstairs, you’ll find two comfy queen bedrooms, a newly renovated bathroom, and a reading nook with river views. Downstairs, enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, eclectic living and dining areas, and a vintage vibe that feels like a step back in time - with all the conveniences of today.

Sip coffee on the front porch while watching boats glide by on the Mystic River, or grill dinner out back beneath the historic St. Jago Ledge. Families appreciate our books, puzzles, toys, and baby gear (high chair + Pack 'n Play), while couples love the romantic charm and walkable neighborhood.

Additional perks include:
- Sofa bed for extra guests
- Private parking for two cars or one with a boat trailer
- Public boat launch just a minute’s stroll away
- Mystic Marina dockage across the street

Come stay where comfort meets history and everything Mystic has to offer is just outside your door.

We had a wonderful stay in this cozy vintage home! We especially loved the short walk to shops, bakeries, and wonderful restaurants. It's close to Rhode Island too which was a big plus since we were able to enjoy a beautiful beach day in Watch Hill and shopping is Westerly. Thanks again for having us!
