Home Watch in Stonington, CT
Tide & Timber looks after second and seasonal homes in Stonington, CT while owners are away— for a season, a month, or a few weeks. We work in the Borough, Wequetequock, Lords Point, Pawcatuck, and across town, and our team is based here.
Homes at the Water’s Edge
Stonington is a working harbor town as well as a summer one. The Borough sits out on a point, with narrow streets, close-set houses, and water close on most sides, while Wequetequock, Lords Point, and Pawcatuck spread out around it. Much of the Borough lies in a mapped flood hazard area, so salt air, wind, and winter freezes are part of life for the houses here, especially the ones that sit empty between visits.
Our team is based in Stonington, so these are our own streets. We close seasonal homes in the fall, visit through the cold months, and open them again before you return. After a nor’easter we check each house and send a photo report, so you can see how it came through without making the drive.
