West Mystic House | Walk to downtown Mystic! The Maxson House Est. 1854

4 Bedroom House in West Mystic, Mystic

Welcome to The Maxson House! Built in 1854 by master shipbuilder William Maxson and nestled in the charming village of Mystic, CT, this gorgeous property offers a true historic experience. Let the original architecture take you back in time when the maritime village saw bustling shipyards and seafaring ships bringing goods back from far off lands. Relax on the property grounds among mature apple trees or help yourself to the seasonal vegetable and herb garden. The Maxson House is yours to enjoy!

ABOUT THE HOME:
The Maxson House offers a convenient location to downtown Mystic. It is only 1/2 mile away and easily walkable (about 10 min.) as there is a sidewalk the entire length of the walk. It is a 5 minute drive to Noank, 8 minutes to I95, 5 minutes to the Mystic Amtrak station, 9 minutes to the Mystic Aquarium, and a 25 minute drive to the beautiful beaches in Westerly, RI.

The house itself has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. Upstairs the primary bedroom has a king bed with a walk-in closet and private bathroom with a shower. The second bedroom has a queen bed and the third bedroom has two twin beds. An additional bathroom with a clawfoot tub and separate shower is upstairs as well. The fourth bedroom is downstairs in the reading room and has a twin daybed with twin pullout trundle underneath. There is a downstairs bathroom as well. A pack-n-play can be provided upon request.

The outdoor grounds of the Maxson House have much to offer. The large driveway allows for ample parking. The private patio is lined with beautiful, tall hedges. Hanging lights provide a cozy glow perfect for enjoying a glass of wine or dinner outdoors with family and friends. Take a walk thru the Dahlia gardens or harvest your own vegetables and herbs from one of the many raised garden beds on the property.

Before booking, please keep in mind the Maxson House was built in 1854 and with that comes all of the older, yet charming characteristics of a historic house. For instance, in 1854 there was no air conditioning. In the spring and summer months air conditioning units will be in place in the windows. The house does have heat, so during the cooler months the heat can be turned on. In addition, the house is adjacent to the Amtrak train tracks. They are not as loud as a regular train but can be subtly heard within the house. With that said, we have personally never had a problem being disturbed or woken up by them.
