The newly renovated kitchen with island and granite counter tops features two stoves, two refrigerators, two sinks and two dishwashers for those who love to cook and entertain. Dine with your family and friends in the gathering room, formal dining room or outside on the front lawn.
A large living room with ample seating has views both south and west toward the Connecticut River. Practice your favorite songs on the upright Sohmer in the Piano room. There is even a toy room for the little ones with games and many books.
For those who love the outdoors, take a walk, run or bike ride along the private lane. Grab your favorite book and a glass of iced tea and relax on the lounge chairs under the trees. In the summer enjoy cocktails on the North Porch as the sun sets over the Connecticut River. Many wonderful family barbecues have been enjoyed on the front lawn facing the Long Island Sound. If you are lucky you might catch fireworks across the Sound or on the River from the Adirondack chairs.
The twin bedroom and full bath, located on the first floor, are handicapped accessible. The other eight bedrooms and four bathrooms are on the second floor accessible by a front and back staircase. Each room is carefully decorated in a classic New England style.
You will find everything you need to enjoy a summer week at this classic home. There is a laundry room, outdoor barbecue grill, and outdoor shower. You can have a lively game of American croquet and bocce on the front lawn.

Summary: Last week our family spent a relaxing, memory filled vacation at the Old House on Griswold Point. Our host Susan Armstrong was wonderful and left no stone unturned as far as being informative and providing us with everything one might need for a perfect vacation. The home is spacious and has an “at home” feel to it. We were 10 adults and 3 small children and there was plenty of room for all of us. In big groups we enjoyed gathering in the dining room or outside at the large table overlooking the sound. In smaller groups there was the Parlor or the North Porch. The little ones loved the playroom and it was stocked with blocks, books and all sorts of toys to keep them busy. We especially enjoyed gathering to relax or fish at the beach. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot to spend a week together! The icing on the cake was that our youngest daughter got engaged at the Old House last week! Our vacation at the Old House provided us with a place to make memories that will last a lifetime.
