Thoughtfully reimagined and expanded, 3 Pattagansett Court offers move-in-ready living in one of the CT Shoreline's most celebrated coastal towns. What began as a 1,000-square-foot, 2-bed, 1-bath ranch is now a 4-bedroom, 2-full bath home, thanks to an addition of more than 700 heated square feet. The improvements are practical and polished. A new, efficient propane HVAC system replaces the original oil heat, and newly installed central air keeps the home comfortable. The roof is only a few years old, the exterior doors are new, and most windows have been replaced with energy-efficient Thermopane units. Refinished hardwood floors bring warmth throughout. Beyond the front door, Niantic's coastal lifestyle is close at hand. Main Street's restaurants & boutiques are just a half mile away, along with the Children's Museum of SE Connecticut and the well-known Book Barn. You can walk the Niantic Bay Boardwalk, which runs a mile beside Hole in the Wall Beach. Spend summer evenings at McCook Point Park for its beach, and concerts. Rocky Neck State Park offers sweeping island views, a spectacular sandbar, hiking trails, picnic areas, and camping. Boaters will appreciate nearby Port Niantic and Three Belles Marina. Niantic's reputation speaks for itself: Good Housekeeping named it one of America's 46 best beach towns (2017). Travel + Leisure recognized it among the region's best small coastal towns (2026). With I-95 just minutes away, commuting is effortless. Don't miss the coastal gem
