About this house rental

The E.A. Huntington home, built in 1717 in historic Beanhill, Norwichtown, with its stone walls, warmly welcomes visitors to 4,100 sq ft of airy space. Set on 3.5 acres of land, this property provides privacy while leaving room for plenty of activities, including an in-ground covered pool, a basketball hoop, soccer, and exploring the land. 4BR w/2.5 baths, can be combined with 2BR cottage rental. The pool is shared between the two listings.
The property is less than a 5-minute walk to the Marriott hotel, an 8-minute drive to Mohegan Sun. A 30-minute drive to Mystic, CT, and about a 40-minute drive to Misquamicut beach in Rhode Island. The drive to Newport, RI is about an hour.

This is the perfect place for a family gathering with plenty of bedrooms and yard space. The main house can be rented in combination with the small 2BR cottage to provide even more accommodations.

The covered in-ground pool is not heated. The pool is open end of May through the end of September, with the season opening and closing being weather-dependent. The pool area will heat up with the sun, but only so much on cooler days.

There is a small gym with a treadmill, rowing machine, weights, and stretch band. Adjacent to that you will find the enclosed back porch with a ping pong table.

You will find plenty of yard space to enjoy nature, play sports, and bird watching. There is also a little pond and a little trail.

The property is overall very quiet because it is set back from the street, providing plenty of privacy. However, with the I-395 passing close by, you will have some traffic noise.

The best way to get around is by car. We provide parking for 4 cars. There is a ride & share lot less than a 4-minute drive by the exit/entrance to the I-395

Baby gates, high chair and pack-n-play are available upon request.

There is a cottage on the same property (separate listing). Look for Spacious 2BR Norwich Cottage.

DOGS: We allow our guests to bring their dog(s) as long as they are fixed and house-trained, and friendly. This is out of courtesy for other guests who might be renting the cottage. Guests are responsible for any damage dogs may cause, and urine stains inside the house will require an extra cleaning fee of $150. All dogs must be leashed while on the property! We do not allow cats.

This is a strictly non-smoking property. A cleaning fee of $250 will apply if guests smoke inside the house.

The bedroom are located on the second floor.

No parties in the sense of inviting guests beyond the ones that you booked the home for.

What a truly exceptional house! We selected it because we were traveling with dogs and it looked like a lovely home but were blown away when we arrived. The house was built in the 1700s and has been meticulously preserved and gently modernized. The details such as the numerous stone fireplaces and kings lumber floors make this house a stunner. It is huge and the rooms are enormous. The beds are so comfortable and the bathrooms are large and stocked with the necessities. As others have shared, it has a very comfortable TV room, a kitchen with ample appliances and cookware for whatever meals you wish to cook, and a full size washer and dryer. We didn't use the dining room or living room but they looked lovely. And they have a cute gym! The house isn't the only story. The property is beautiful with gorgeous lawns and ample sitting areas and a pool in its own building! There is a second rental property making this ideal for family reunions. The house would also make the perfect girls weekend or wellness retreat space. Because it is an historic house, there is a bit of a learning curve. Electricity came much later to the house so it may take a moment to figure out which switches go with which lights. Also, the floors are uneven as is appropriate for the home. We were cautioned to be thoughtful with the hot water - which we were and had no problems at all. For those who love these gorgeous older homes, you will likely find these charming features!

The property was wonderful and the rooms were huge with comfortable beds! Our main issue was just finding all the light switches for each room. Many were covered up or didn’t work. Once we did, though, it was fine. The house is huge and a bit of a maze to find your way around with hallways that go in circles and two stairways. We had fun finding our way and had it down by the end of the weekend! Those of us that used the pool loved it, although the doors to get in were extremely difficult to open, and we loved the big dining room table when we played games, the huge comfy couch for watching TV and plenty of counter space in the kitchen. We were warned to schedule and spread out our showers so as to preserve the hot water but didn’t have any problems with running out. There was plenty of parking and the area was very quiet. The AC was nice and definitely needed.
