About This Home

As of September 2022

Located in the heart of Bell Island, 25 South Beach is the quintessential beach house. With views of Long Island sound out front and Rowayton’s Farm Creek in the rear, this 3 bed, 3 bath beach bungalow offers water views from every angle. Straight from the pages of a fairytale, you enter through a rose covered gate into the living room and fully updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances. A downstairs bedroom and full bath are conveniently located off the kitchen with views of Farm Creek. The second floor boasts a primary bedroom with an en-suite updated bath, a WIC, as well as a loft that can be utilized as an office, bedroom or bonus space. A large secondary bedroom with an en-suite bath completes the second floor. The fenced in backyard looks out on Farm Creek and offers a private area for outdoor living. The Bell Island lifestyle is nothing short of idyllic with access to 2 beaches, 3 parks and walkability to town.
