A rare opportunity to acquire a historic Connecticut landmark. The Bushnell Farm House and Barn offer a unique chance to restore and reimagine an important piece of Old Saybrook history. Featuring the historic Elisha Bushnell House and accompanying barn, the property showcases classic New England architecture, mature landscaping, stone walls, and the timeless character that has made this site a local treasure for generations.

Whether envisioned as a private estate, hospitality-related use, office, wellness concept, or other permitted use, the property offers exceptional potential for those with a vision for restoration and stewardship. Ideally situated on Boston Post Road with convenient access to Interstate 95, Route 9, shoreline beaches, marinas, shopping, and restaurants, the property benefits from excellent visibility and accessibility within one of Connecticut's most desirable shoreline communities.
