About This Home

As of December 2021

Tucked between two multi-million dollar homes under construction in the sought-after Grove Beach Terrace Association, this humble 1940's year-round home offers a potential buyer the ability to take the existing good bones of the house and create a waterfront masterpiece. The property, with its stunning views of Long Island Sound and its direct placement on the deep sandy beach with miles of wonderful walking in all directions, and swimming out to the sandbar, is waiting for a complete renovation or updating of the original house. This is the first time this home has been available for sale, having been in the same family for over seventy-five years. Original hardwood floors and pine paneling are reminiscent of beach cottages of the 1940's, and this sturdy house welcomes family and friends to enjoy its "front row" status for many years to come.
