About This Home

As of June 2025

Nestled along the peaceful Patchoque River, this 10-year-young Waterfront Federal-style home has direct Sound access and a short walk to the beach. Privately set back, it combines tranquility with convenience to all amenities. Step inside to find rich Brazilian cherry floors, custom wainscoting, and elegant crown molding. The formal dining room is perfect for hosting gatherings, while the main living area features a custom gas fireplace, oversized sliders to a deck with water views, and a gourmet kitchen with stainless appliances and granite counters. A guest bath and pantry lead to an oversized two-car garage with workshop and basement access. Upstairs, natural light floods the space, with stunning water views from the master suite and guest bedrooms. The master suite includes a spacious walk-in closet and a custom-tiled bath. Designed for future expansion, this home is two-family zoned with an unfinished third story and extra area. Public water, natural gas, and no flood insurance required-a rare waterfront gem!
