About 9 Columbus Avenue

If you are looking for a special property in a charming New England town, welcome to TIMTTOR (This Is My Time To Relax), a 1896 Carriage House. This lovely, private .64-acre shoreline property is wonderfully situated in the heart of Niantic Village. Stroll to beaches, parks, and just a few feet from downtown Main Street for boutique shopping, restaurants, bakeries, bookshops, and breweries, or continue your stroll on the Niantic waterfront boardwalk. Pass through the gates of TIMTTOR into this enchanting property once owned by American Impressionist painter Roger Dennis. Dennis, a member of the Old Lyme art colony, was well-known for landscape paintings, and these grounds reflect that, boasting gardens, natural outdoor living spaces, stone walls, and mature perennials. The bluestone terrace, propane fire pit table, and propane Weber grill sitting under a grand pergola, with a Jacuzzi hot tub, fieldstone outdoor shower. Inside, a gourmet kitchen with a Wolf dual fuel stove and pot filler makes this home a hidden gem, perfect for entertaining. Additional attic expansion easily converted into additional office, gym, or studio with bedroom and already plumbed bathroom. Outbuildings include an antique potting shed, a tool shed, and a detached garage with a workbench.
