The Lanman Lamb House, circa 1840, offers something increasingly rare in Mystic's Historic District: exceptional parking, a private backyard, and an in-ground pool just steps from downtown and the Mystic River. A detached two-car garage is complemented by a separate gated parking area accommodating two additional vehicles-an invaluable feature in this highly walkable village location. Privately enclosed behind the home, the level backyard creates a peaceful retreat with a 30-by-15-foot pool, sunroom, screened porch, patio areas, and the distinctive "Boathouse" outbuilding. The fenced corner lot provides a degree of privacy that is difficult to find so close to downtown Mystic's restaurants, shops, marinas, and waterfront. Inside, the graceful Colonial offers four bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, hardwood floors, built-ins, a bay-window living room, wood-stove parlor, and remodeled island kitchen. The home still bears its original builder's plaque, preserving an important connection to its history. A recently replaced roof and windows provide meaningful updates and added peace of mind. A rare opportunity to enjoy historic character, private outdoor living, a pool, garage, and parking for four vehicles in one of Mystic's most desirable locations. Ask your agent for a very detailed property packet.

Mystic Historic District, located between the Mystic River waterfront and the Stonington town line, is a historic and walkable Mystic neighborhood with a working harbor and a compact downtown streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Main Street at Water Street, where galleries, independent boutiques, oyster bars, and dockside patios cluster beside drawbridge views. S&P Oyster Company, Mystic Seaport Museum, and Mystic Museum of Art act as cultural anchors with a strong local following. Architecture leans to preserved 18th- and 19th-century homes, sea-captain-era details, and small commercial blocks. Side streets shift quickly from storefronts to quiet porches and pocket gardens. The riverfront sets the pace, with boats, boardwalk moments, and salt-air breezes shaping daily routines.
