About the Home

If you are a water lover, THIS is an incredible waterfront lifestyle home, WITH PRIVATE DOCK! Imagine living within walking distance to 20 restaurants, live music, the train, a golf course, the gym, a farmers market and all sorts of water sports! This antique farmhouse, which is adorned with bows of mature wisteria, is delightfully sited on a .49 acre level lot with sprawling lawn down to its very own waterfront on the Saugatuck River. Hop on your boat and scoot out to Long Island Sound. Or chill on your dock, enjoy floating happy hours, catch fish, watch the Rowing Club teams go by, go paddle boarding or maybe kayak out to dockside restaurants along the river. The home has 4 bedrooms,3 full baths and a studio below with its own entrance. The hip glass railing system, on both IPE Brazilian wood decks, allows the scenic water views to seamlessly pour in! The primary suite has a fireplace, cathedral ceiling and french doors onto its own deck with a fab hot tub to really unwind while overlooking the River. The kitchen is open to the living room which has a wall of glass, with french doors to the enormous main deck and a large fireplace for cozy indoor nights. The front room on the main level is an ideal quiet office with a separate exterior entrance, lots of built-in book shelves and is located farthest from the busy part of the home. Walk to the train only 1 hour to NYC!
