Here’s a seemingly magical home that doesn’t come around often: a summer cottage on its very own island.
This piece of private heaven beckons as you approach from the water. It is painted a lovely Colonial blue outside and nearly fully outfitted with wood paneling from top to bottom inside, making for a very special, almost yacht-like atmosphere.
Other neat features you’ll notice outside include a stone wall, a garden, and a stone-enclosed gas grill.
The 15’x17’ kitchen has a pantry and a galley; the 15’x20’ family room is on the first level and comes with a fireplace and bookshelves.
As for bedrooms, the master bedroom measures 13’x16’, while two others measure 11’x16’ and a final is a bit roomier at 12’x16’.
This extraordinary vintage classic is just two hours from New York City and offers original wainscoted walls and ceilings, gas lights, fireplaces, and wraparound porches overlooking the manicured putting green lawn, windswept pines, and a very recently installed new dock.
This home is being offered for sale by William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty for $3,950,000. For information and a showing, contact Tony Nuzzo at 203-605-5231.
