Three-hundred-and-sixty-degree views of the water are just the beginning of the amenities as you approach this four-bedroom home on a peninsula in Old Greenwich, CT. The more than 3,300-square-foot house is a short walk to Tod’s Point, which can be seen to the north along the shoreline. “It’s in the distance where you can appreciate all the life and activity at Tod’s Point but it’s far enough away where it’s not impactful to your lifestyle on your own property,” says Brian Milton of Compass Connecticut in Armonk, NY, and Greenwich, CT, who is the broker for the property. As he touts on the listing, it is widely considered one of the best views in all of Old Greenwich. Sea breezes, sunrises and sunsets and miles of shoreline in sight all provide a tranquil setting for the home, which was renovated down to the studs in 2015 with touches of coastal luxury.
“I immediately liken it to an Aman Resort,” says Milton. “It’s what I think is a perfect description to the feeling that this property evokes when you are actually walking through the house, from the design elements to the indoor/outdoor harmony that the house provides.”
Designed by globally renowned interior designer Marcia Tucker, the home boasts all the finest materials, including white oak ceilings, hydro-radiant heated Carlyle wide-plank walnut floors, stonework in the front entrance and around the fireplace, custom cabinetry in the kitchen, Japanese toilets in each bathroom, and a new metal standing seam roof.
“The great room has cathedral ceilings and wood burning fireplace and all glass windows on two sides overlooking the water and pool. It’s open to the large dining area and kitchen so it’s really designed to have no isolated rooms in the public space of the house,” says Milton.
The primary suite, which has a secondary room that can be used as a closet or office, is located on the first floor with direct access to the pool. From the primary bath shower, you can walk out to the outdoor shower. “It’s a really cool feature,” says Milton. Wake to pink sunrises on the sound with a wall of eastern exposure windows. Two more en suite bedrooms on the second floor share a west-facing balcony.
Exit sliding glass doors from the living room and dining room to the outdoor living space, including a patio, outdoor kitchen, saltwater pool and jacuzzi, and sunken glass fire pit for lounging on chilly nights. A glass fence surrounds the pool so as not to obstruct the view. The permitted paddle and pickleball court with lights surrounding provides entertainment year-round because it can be converted to an ice rink in winter. The property also has a hard-to-come-by private dock and mooring.
Considered a “smart” home, Lutron lighting, electric shades on all the hurricane windows and a Sonos sound system can be found throughout the house. The three-car garage has a slat wall system for convenient storage.
With convenient distance to shopping, dining and the train, the property is being considered by those who were already seeking waterfront, and those who hadn’t considered it but are now. “This home could suit the next chapter of anyone’s life based on the amenities it offers and the uniqueness it provides,” says Milton. “It’s really a year-round location.”
