About This Home

As of August 2025

A rare offering on the East Branch of the Westport River, this refined waterfront retreat blends architectural charm with natural beauty. Once a summer cottage, it’s now a sophisticated year-round home filled with light and walls of glass. A dramatic solarium with hardwood floors and a gas fireplace welcomes you, while a private footbridge leads to one of three decks overlooking the river. The chef’s kitchen—updated 2021–2024—features a Wolf cooktop, double ovens, new dishwasher, handcrafted cabinets with stained glass, granite counters, island, and desk. The adjacent living room boasts vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and a wood-burning fireplace. A 13' x 31' great room anchors the home with sweeping 180 river views and a striking gas fireplace. Three bedrooms include a lower-level suite with walk-out patio access. With two full baths, a private dock, and serene setting, this is one of Westport’s most picturesque waterfront properties.
