A weekend escape now, a place to grow into later, 587 Taugwonk Road is the kind of Stonington property where friends arrive Friday and linger through Sunday. Set on 1.72 acres, the 1936 farmhouse pairs vintage character - original built-ins, a breakfast nook and wood-burning fireplace - with newer siding, windows and major mechanical updates. Owned solar arrays power the property, resulting in no electricity cost. Beyond the main house, a collection of separate spaces makes this property especially compelling. A fully insulated unfinished guest cottage offers a private retreat for friends and family, an ideal work-from-home space, or potential rental income. The heated detached garage/workshop is ready for projects, gear or a studio. And the classic red timber-frame barn, with two lofts, has all the ingredients for an unforgettable entertaining space - imagine a long farm table, cafe lights overhead, music, dinner with friends and evenings gathered around a nearby firepit. The original dairy farm "milk house" adds yet another distinctive space to reimagine. Use it as your escape from the city today and envision making it home over time. Stonington Borough, downtown Mystic, Westerly and Rhode Island beaches, vineyards and golf are all within easy reach. More than a house, this is a property with the space and personality to create your own version of coastal-country living. MAIN HOUSE IS 1684 SQFT AND THE GUEST COTTAGE IS 561 SQFT
