Features a spectrum of intimate isolation overlooking the water yet convenient to town, dining, travel and conveniences. The massive stone fireplace with a storied past – the only original feature -- is the heart of home. Located in the expansive great room, overlooking a secluded utopia intruding upon broad sweeping tantalizing water views of the CT river and Essex Harbor below. Seen through cascading banks of custom over-sized windows and French doors. A “no mold model” with artistic inclinations and a blueprint of surprises. A gracious home with a dining room that will easily accommodate 50 guests. A 1700 sq. ft. master bedroom suite with reading and dressing rooms is in a world of its own. Splendid detail and architectural appointments throughout, this extravagant entertainer features --- a grand atrium rising 40’ towering over a country cloistered estate setting surrounded by multi-level terraces, a heated pool and intimate isolation on 7 acres of peace and serenity -- overlooking yachts, sails, ships and soaring eagles. Home affords versatility ranging from a caterer’s suite for large scale entertaining to comfortable and casual intimate spaces.
