About this property
Cape Overlooking South Cove of Old Saybrook
Wonderful home just a quick walk from the historic town of Old Saybrook and 2 miles from the Town Beach. Spectacular views of the South Cove. Awake to amazing sunrises from the bedroom windows. Lots of great restaurants in town, from gourmet to great burger & beer places. Easy access from Rt. 95 & Rt. 9. One mile from the Saybrook Point Inn & Marina on the Long Island Sound. Equidistant from Boston area and New York City, great location for friends to meet.

About the host
Hosted by Karen Ansbro Leone
My background has always been in the hospitality industry. Whether working in a hotel or restaurant or working as a meeting or event planner, I have always enjoyed giving my all to guests and clients. My hospitality background has led me to the belief that service needs to be spectacular. I now offer all woman trips and love working with different Inns and restaurants to create fabulous trips to women that are looking to be pampered. I love music of all kinds (classic rock, blues, country, adult alternative), wine (Sauvignon Blanc lately), good food, hanging with friends and laughing. I used to love going to the movies, but have found so many great TV series on cable the last two years and the popcorn and soda is so much cheaper.
Why they chose this property
I love the neighborhood! I'm just a house in from Main Street. It's a quiet neighborhood. And, it's just a quick walk to downtown Old Saybrook. My backyard is a treasure, just ask the birds! They love it.
What makes this property unique
My home is cozy, eclectic with a bohemian style. As the kitchen and back of the house faces east, the sun, when it's out, streams in. The views of the South Cove are fabulous and you may even see the eagle that visits the tree in my neighbors home behind me.
