About This Home
As of February 2025Be entranced by direct water views across Long Island Sound, the harbor, Peck's Ledge lighthouse and the Norwalk islands. The view is enhanced by sights of watersport enthusiasts, boaters and rowing team practices. Located in a most convivial waterfront community featuring its own clubhouse, tennis courts, playground, moorings, dock and beach, this special property has so much to offer. It is amazing to find such a relaxed and amenity-rich environment so close to SoNo and NYC. Completely updated. The living room and dining room open directly to a generous covered porch with ceiling fans, summer breezes and the unrivaled water views. The covered porch leads to a flagstone patio and fortified sea wall with stairs for direct water access. The DR includes wood burning fireplace + dry bar with beverage cooler. Living is easy with the porcelain tiled floors. Enjoy cooking while overlooking the Sound in a well-proportioned kitchen with lovely calcite counters. A guest bedroom and bath complete the first floor. Upstairs, the cherry wood flooring leads you to a lounge and primary bedroom suite overlooking the same great views enhanced by another large deck. The primary bath features a double shower. A den, office or possible 3rd BR enjoys its own deck facing the tidal marsh and community with it's eclectic architecture spanning over 120 years. This property offers the perfect mix of cottage style living with all the comforts, style and sophistication of chic waterfront living.
