About this house rental

Treat yourself to a genuinely unique experience in this luxurious six bedroom, six and a half bath rebuilt 19th century stone mansion overlooking Long Island Sound. Originally built in 1825 by Mystic banker Elias Brown the Stone House stood majestically atop Quoketaug Hill. Everything but the stonework burned to the ground in 1924. The family was finally able to realize their dream to rebuild it in 2016.

The formal living room with its marble-faced gas log fireplace offers a beautiful sitting area for quiet conversation, reading or watching television.

The dining room provides elegant seating for sixteen people. It too has a marble-faced gas-log fireplace. It is decorated with a beautiful collection of Japanese plates from the family’s years of living in Japan.

The gourmet kitchen features a 48” 6-burner gas stove with griddle and two ovens. The 3-seat granite topped peninsula area provides a work area with views of the verandah and Long Island Sound beyond. The kitchen is completely stocked with every cooking device required to create a gourmet meal. No need to tote things from home. A small breakfast nook makes a great place for early-risers to share a cup of coffee and watch the news. A Dutch door leads out to the verandah.

The 20’ by 24’ verandah offers alfresco dining in the warm weather. A gas grill is conveniently located just off the steps. Guests have easy access to the Garden Lot and wonderful views of Fisher’s Island.

Taking the stairs to the second floor you will find three bedroom suites. The Stanton Suite has a queen-sized bed and offers views to the south and east. The bath features a beautiful freestanding tub and a tile shower.

The Williams Suite is the largest bedroom and has a queen-sized bed. The windows face the hayfield to the east and offer views of Watch Hill in the distance.

The Denison Suite has a queen-size bed. Both the Williams and Denison suites have baths with custom tile showers.

All three 2nd floor bedrooms have remote operated gas-log fireplaces.

2ND FLOOR VERANDAH

The 2nd floor, 24' X 20' verandah offers beautiful views of the property, Fisher's Island and Long Island Sound. Watch the boats travel the sound while enjoying your morning coffee or an afternoon tea or cocktails. It is furnished with wicker furniture and rocking chairs. A 6-seat picnic table is a great place for lunch. See pictures below.

The 3rd floor also has three bedroom suites. Two have beautiful walk-in tile showers. The third offers a tub/shower combo. The Harold and Marjory Suites have queen-size beds. The Einna Suite has two sets of bunk beds.

The largest part of the 3rd floor is given up to the Cottrell Room. This 25’ X 30’ south-facing room has two large sitting areas. The one in the south dormer has exquisite views. On clear days Montauk Point on the end of Long Island can be seen on the horizon. This is a great place for tea or cocktails and catching up with friends or family. The other is more of an entertainment area with a large flat-screen TV with a wrap-around couch to lounge around on. A premium cable package provides access to a vast selection of movies and sporting events There’s a game table for cards, chess or checkers. On the east side is a three-seat bar area with a sink, small refrigerator, ice maker, blender and enough glasses to make long trips to the kitchen unnecessary.

All the floors are hardwood except for the bathrooms which are tile. The laundry room in the basement has a washer and dryer for guests to use. There are individual heating and AC controls on each floor.

The house is situated on almost 6 acres of open fields. The driveway has ample parking for nine cars .We are less than 2 miles from Interstate 95 and less than 20 minutes from the casinos, wineries and Rhode Island beaches.

WE’RE VERY SORRY, BUT THE STONE HOUSE IS LOCATED IN A QUIET RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD, SO OUT OF RESPECT FOR OUR NEIGHBORS WE DO NOT ALLOW EVENTS OF MORE THAN THE FOURTEEN GUESTS (MAX) LODGING AT THE HOUSE.

The house is beautiful. I brought dishes and bowls with me for serving chips and dip and such. I didn’t need any of it. I am very impressed that anything I could need was there! We really enjoyed our stay.

This place was amazing beautiful views. Property was super clean it was like staying in a 5 star hotel. Everything was absolutely perfect. From coffee on the second floor porch to dinners around the enormous dining room table to late night snacks and games on the third floor. The hosts were so kind we will be back.

Wonderful property. Each room had its own bathroom. So much history and it felt like being in museum with stories about the original family. Kitchen was very well equipped. The dining room was spacious and could accommodate our whole group of 14 for all the meals. We loved it and would definitely come back.

We had a great stay at the Stone Mansion for our annual family reunion. Really a special house and place on the hill just outside old mystic. With 6 bedrooms, with a full bath for each, two living areas, and two amazing patio’s the space is wonderful for a family reunion like ours. The views from the upper level are amazing too. Cell service is non-existent, so you will need to turn on your wi-fi calling. And the kitchen is a little tight for such a big space, but other than that it is all AMAZING.

We stayed at the home for my 50th birthday weekend. There were 12 adults and all couples had beautiful bedrooms with their own bathrooms. The veranda spaces provide breathtaking views and comfortable places to hang out. The host, Elaine, helped us secure a private chef for a birthday dinner. It was so helpful to have a chef that knew the space and they provided an excellent experience and meal. Our favorite was ending each evening on the 3rd floor great room for night caps and games. This is a special property and the touches and details added to the excellent experience. I could not recommend this lovely home more. Thank you Elaine and Heidi fir a 50th I will cherish.

Grand and sophisticated without being pretentious. The Stone House was a perfect location for our multi-generational family gathering. It can handle a crowd and provided everyone with generous private space. Comfortable dining for 14, two large covered porches (we loved these in all sorts of weather), a great yard, and gardens well suited for family photos. We could not have found a better place. 10 out of 10.
