23 Starr St, New London, CT 06320

Description

Step onto the brick sidewalks of Starr Street & you immediately understand why this preserved row of 1830s Greek Revival homes is so special. Built in 1839, 23 Starr Street pairs genuine 19th-century architectural soul with the peace of mind that comes from a full 1980 gut-renovation & continuous, thoughtful stewardship. Inside, a grand oak entry welcomes you into classic living spaces defined by wood floors, high ceilings, & working fireplaces. Toward the rear, everyday comfort takes center stage: a renovated modern kitchen flows easily into an expansive family room centered around a cozy gas fireplace insert. A main-level half bath & dedicated laundry room add the kind of daily practicality antique homes so rarely offer, while a 3.5-year-old high-efficiency natural gas combination boiler handles heat & hot water with modern reliability. Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms & two full baths give everyone room to spread out, whether setting up creative work-from-home studios or hosting weekend guests. Out back, a private courtyard patio & garden create a quiet outdoor haven without demanding your entire weekend to maintain. Walk down the block to dine on Bank Street, stroll the Thames River waterfront, or walk five minutes to Union Station for an easy Amtrak ride to Boston, Providence, or New York. With Mystic just ten minutes away, this landmark home lets you step into the stewardship of a storied neighborhood without taking on a restoration project.
