About the Home
Once in a lifetime the opportunity presents itself to own a premier waterfront residence with panoramic views of Long Island Sound in the private Tokeneke Association. Beautifully sited on 2.79 acres of open park-like grounds, this 7 bedroom property is enhanced with a modern infinity pool and spa, your own private beach and for the boaters’ delight, dock and mooring availability. The living room invites you to the outdoors with floor to ceiling windows and a seamless glass balcony that allows unobstructed water views and daily sunsets. While having a generous footprint of 8,491 sf, you still feel connected throughout the 3 levels of this home while every space draws your eye to the breathtaking exteriors. A special retreat for guests, an en suite bedroom with French doors that open to the veranda, which captures the warmth of the sun throughout the year. The elegant library is warm and cozy in the New England winters with a fireplace and bar. The private work from home office is situated on the lower level with an additional 1,440 sf and direct walk out to the pool. This custom-built home is much more than an extraordinary estate with so many incredible upgrades. See for yourself! This seaside sanctuary is a home to be enjoyed by family and friends for years to come!
