As you arrive, salt air and the rhythm of the tides welcome you. The stately residence commands sweeping Atlantic views and brims with character—from soaring ceilings and graceful archways to an original butler’s pantry that whispers of its storied past. The richly wood-paneled pub room recalls the echoes of bygone celebrations and cherished traditions, quickly becoming a favorite among guests. A flowing, open layout offers generous space for both intimate moments and grand entertaining, while the upper-level retreat—framed by dramatic ocean vistas—invites quiet reflection. This is a home where historic charm, refined elegance, and the ever-present pulse of the sea combine to create an unforgettable coastal haven.
