About the Home

Welcome to The Cottages at Lyons plain, a magnificent four acre riverfront estate, in the heart of picturesque lower Weston. This inspiring retreat, once known as Laurel Lawn, is nestled on a breathtaking bend in the Saugatuck River. Its scenic acreage comprises three charming, updated homes, as well as a lofty-temperature controlled carriage barn in its center, renovated in 2005. Plenty of room for larger scale construction and expansion, a potential pool site as well. Dwellings include an iconic 1 bedroom waterfront, post and beam jewel box, built in 2004 by local craftsmen, a circa 1800s 3 bedroom & 2 bath farmhouse with 2 covered porches, and quintessential 1 bedroom C. 1940s caretaker's cottage with large walkup attic. Own a piece of history on your own peninsula, rife with authentic character and original detail, but no historic restrictions. Meander down this idyllic private lane, past original stone walls, charming well and hen houses, across a hidden bridge, and avail yourself to private swimming and sporting opportunities in one of the region's finest trout fishing spots. You will never look back. All buildings are legal rental properties, a singular status in the Town of Weston. Ask for details. Must have confirmed appointment. Do not walk property without appointment.
