The tranquil beauty of the Connecticut River imparts exceptional waterside grace to this captivating, architecturally distinctive, Shingle-style residence built in 2008 to extraordinary standards. Premium materials and remarkable workmanship accent an incomparably scenic setting, with walls of windows and stretches of sliding doors leading to expansive terraces and decking, sweeping an immediacy of views into the home, while including the glorious outdoors in the home's ambiance and flow. The extremely usable riverside property offers a substantial, beautifully landscaped five acre secluded refuge with groomed lawns and stunning gardens, and a stone stairway leading to the sandy beachside and extensive fully permitted dock area with water, electricity and lift. A three bay carriage barn, accessed through a well designed pergola walkway, offers a separate upper level perfect for guest quarters. This home is truly one of the loveliest properties ever offered in the lower CT Valley.
