As of October 2021Situated high on a private hill in the Salem Straits Association, this traditional English home has gracious charm rarely seen, which many new constructions simply cannot offer.

Mature gardens and professionally maintained grounds with stunning landscape lighting come alive each season. The Family room with wet bar off the kitchen look out onto the private grounds with a sparkling pool, and enjoy western light all day long. A separate playroom above the garage is ideal for relaxing, while the master suite offers ample room for an office. Coffered ceilings and a fireplace make the the dining room perfect for entertaining. The formal sunken living room with fireplace, coiffured ceilings and French doors add to the living spaces. Radiant heat in mudroom, kitchen, master bathroom.
Newly appointed flagstone terrace, outdoor fire place and pool make this home the perfect sanctuary, and the ideal property to entertain. Enjoy a stroll thru the Association or around beautiful Long Neck Point.
