GUILFORD

$1,982,000 ESSEX

$1,590,000

The Stonington Borough – Immaculate restored waterfront located at the coveted tip of Stonington Point overlooking little Narranganset Bay, Watch Hill and the Atlantic. Blending period charm with open modern light filled space. A sumptuously proportioned 5+ bedroom home with a deep water dock. Surrounded in a galaxy of sea, sails, sand, mystical moorings, and a symphony of distant muted wistful fog horns. Restored sea captain’s homes, quaint cobblestone, and a nightly seashore expose. Walk to everything in this quintessential New England, antique fishing village.

Life takes on new meaning when you enter “the village” - shop one-of-a-kind boutiques downtown or linger over a candlelight dinner at one of the trendy restaurants, after a day visiting the tall ships of Mystic Seaport or steamed lobsters on the dock. Have lunch on Block Island, or an easy day trip to Newport, Narragansett, Point Judith, Jamestown and Providence Rhode Island. Its central location, equidistant from New York and Boston, offers residents a lifestyle like no other.

The approach to this direct waterfront home in a coveted area of Sachem’s Head is reminiscent of going to an Island-like compound. Drive-by does not reveal lawned expanse to water’s edge and incredible panoramic views from almost every room in the home. The home, rich in detail and etched in elegance, is built above all normal building standards. Tray and coffered ceilings, intricate hardwoods, rich trim and finishes. Open floor plan with wall of French doors overlooking stunning water views. The master bedroom is a retreat itself, with a fireplace, balcony, full office, and a luxurious master bath with an abundance of ornate tile work and tumbled marble. There is a stairway, integral to the home, leading to an as of yet unfinished 3rd floor; versatile space for your choosing i.e. media room, theatre, office, 3rd MBR option, gym or leave as is to minimize finished living area.

The lower level has a 5 car garage with one bay outfitted with an indoor hot water car wash! There is an ensuite bedroom/sitting room on the main level that is the perfect guest quarters or first floor MBR option.

Surround yourself in the charm, tradition and character of a unique New England waterfront compound with the coveted combination of expansive private grounds that blend seamlessly with sails, surf, sand, sun and a private beach. The main house is beach style Victorian architecture with crown moldings, woodwork, dentil trim and built-ins; the carriage house exuding character has “coachman’s quarters” overlooking a gazebo and the water, with a nightly display of fiery sunsets.

That’s not all -- a visitor’s cottage that was once an early American log home is on the premises.

Immerse yourself into a lifestyle transformation of gentle sea scented winds as you become part of this seashore oasis known as “Pleasure Beach’ -- an easy road to life and a reflection of yesteryear.

Spend memory making hours at the beach --swimming, fishing, making friends, and long walks on the beach discovering gulls, clams and starfish. Equidistant between Boston and NY. Numerous art galleries, wineries, trendy eateries, and quaint seaside villages with many boutiques are nearby.

Stunning, newly renovated, luxury waterfront home set on 1.5 acres of lush lawned grounds; just minutes to charming Essex village. Penthouse loft-look, open main level is understated with high quality etched in elegance that is truly an exceptional property. Frontage on the Connecticut River with boathouse, private sandy beach, dock, deep water mooring and dramatic new dream chef ’s kitchen — all high end, bamboo, subzero, Viking, etc. Full guest/multi-generational suite.
