Vintage Elegance in Sachem’s Head Sitting high above its 2.3 acre peninsula is the lovingly preserved Estate once known as “Rock Ledge”. Today, 44 Uncas Circle continues to sit at the tip of Guilford's prestigious Sachem’s Head like a sentinel at the gate of a portion of the Connecticut Shoreline.

This private Estate has many amenities usually availed to the most prestigious of clubs and is further enhanced by its unique private setting including a guest house, tennis court, private beach and deep water dock.

The Main House is a sprawling 9,600 square foot residence with eight bedrooms and five full baths, which exudes Vintage Elegance.

The floor plan flows majestically through a large formal dining room and living room, which opens to a four season veranda. To the east is an enclosed porch from which to enjoy summer breezes wafting over the Sachem’s Head Yacht Club. The entryway reminds one of a vintage Italian stone grotto, while the kitchen entices the most novice of chefs to test their culinary skills while enjoying views of the cove. Behind the main residence sits the guest house with beautiful views of Long Island Sound. To the south is the estate’s private sandy beach; while to the west sits the tennis court. The estate’s deep water dock provides its residents with access from the water and an additional option for a stress free commute to destinations between Boston and New York.

The Estate is offered at $6,995,000.

Fenwick, Old Saybrook You won't find a New Englander that doesn't agree that the past year has been “annus horribilis.” Hurricane Sandy, the tragedy at Sandy Hook, Nemo and finally, The Boston Marathon wreaked havoc. What shines through the darkness is heroism and heartfelt patriotism that is especially significant this Memorial Day. Democrat, Republican nor anyone in-between could debate the magnificence of the American flag.

It is omnipresent throughout Shoreline towns where residents wear patriotism on their sleeves. “Black goes with everything” is standard fashion advice, but Betsy Ross must have had excellent style sense when she picked the colors for Old Glory because everything looks beautiful draped in red, white & blue!

A

new report reveals houses are selling faster and for more money, yet another indicator of a rebounding housing market. According to the National Association of Realtors, full-year sales of previously owned homes increased by 9 percent in 2012 over the previous year. Plus, home prices jumped up 12.3 percent, the biggest percentage gain since January 2005.

This will challenge sellers to sharpen their competitive edge as more homeowners, encouraged by promising indicators, put their house on the market.

Installing hardwood floors is one of the smartest investments a seller can make. Hardwood flooring is easy to install, never goes out of style and is extremely desirable to homebuyers.

First impressions matter, and home buying is no different. Making a few updates to a house's exterior goes a long way in making houses more inviting and valuable. Homeowners can put their green thumbs to work by weeding their garden, trimming plants and branches and adding color by planting vibrant flowers in containers or planters.

Unique, stylish light fixtures can create a warm and inviting environment, while new appliances add visual interest and help increase the value of a home. Even subtle touches like updating cabinet hardware or installing a tile backsplash behind a stove can give a kitchen the facelift it needs. So hone your home so its best foot is forward!

ROWATON Where Five Mile River Meets Long Island Sound

Rowayton’s coveted waterfront provides endless seascapes with brilliant hues for artists enamored with its ever-changing tides and colors unique to each of New England’s four seasons. ROWAYTON ARTS CENTER, on the banks of the river, is a community staple that encourages creativity amongst its residents and visitors with exhibitions, classes and workshops.

Rowayton is a boater’s delight with a fine selection of marinas and convenient water access to Manhattan, the Hamptons, hundreds of islands in the Sound and beyond. Community beaches offer year-round respite within walking distance from this lovely, unpretentious town.

R

owayton sports Greens Ledge Lighthouse like a necklace charm on the horizon where Five Mile River flows into the Sound. It was built in 1902 on a treacherous rock formation amongst the Norwalk Islands to supplement existing lights as shipping traffic increased from New York to Boston.

Rowayton’s history includes a lively oyster industry, which eventually declined due to overfishing.

Inevitably, Rowayton was scooped up by New York City weary executives who found a convenient haven from the hustle bustle of Manhattan where simplicity is appreciated and beauty abounds. My favorite 60 Minutes news correspondent, the lovable, bushy browed, cantankerous Andy Rooney, made low-key Rowayton his home for more than sixty years.
