Available now in New London is the William Coit House, a Nationally and State recognized Historical Home built in 1763. Having witnessed the birth of our country and built by a known sea captain in the Revolutionary War, also stood here was Benedict Arnold, thankfully spared the home to now serve as a reminder of the history of our nation and an important landmark to the city of New London. You'll find her in mid-restoration. Magnificent original chestnut floors in the keeping room, bathroom, and kitchen, which would also be under the dining, hall, and breakfast room flooring. Upstairs, you'll see the beautiful wide pine floors. Also, original 18th-century wide wood paneling on the staircase and all interior walls. Set on a nice flat, double corner lot, your location couldn't be any better. Tremendous walkability to the pier, Bank Street, and not far at all from all of the amenities you may need or desire. This home is such a charm! It's the second oldest home in New London with original 18th Century features. A few recent updates include a new gas hot water heater, all new insulated ductwork for the forced hot air system, and new roof on shed. This home has 5 fireplaces, and the primary BR enjoys its own too - along with another BR & fireplace. Wide board floors throughout continuing the historic influences, claw foot tub, brass shower, the list goes on - you must see it!
