KNOLLWOOD BEACH - Here is the opportunity! A recently sparkled-up home. This beach house lives on a wide, 0.98-acre lot offering possibilities rarely found this close to the shoreline. First time since it was built. Come and live it up now! This one can generate rental income, or land-bank this parcel while planning something much more commodious for tomorrow. Knollwood is renovation-active, with many projects currently underway surrounding this home-a proven location for substantial improvements and new construction. Recent upgrades include a new 200-AMP electrical panel, central A/C, and forced-air heat and vinyl siding. Downstairs is made for entertaining in the family room, featuring a newer wood stove, a '70s show bar with a sink, an office/mudroom from the garage, a workshop, laundry, and a half bath. The wide lot (97 feet of frontage) features a circular driveway leading to the one-car garage. Step onto the rear deck for marsh views and a spacious backyard with room for a fire pit and outdoor gatherings. Enjoy the association beach, pier and walkway, clubhouse, tennis/pickleball courts, basketball and baseball fields, and playground. Use it today while enjoying the tremendous fun this Old Saybrook location has to offer. There is plenty of upside for grand expansion tomorrow or simply making more fond memories every day.
