On the shores of the navigable Back River where the Connecticut River meets Long Island Sound, this home overlooks Great Island, a 32 acre tidal marsh filled with wildlife. Entering the foyer the eye is drawn to the stunning water views with French doors leading to an expansive bluestone terrace. This elegant, yet comfortable, home has a Great Room with walls of windows offering stunning views out to the waterfront, highlighted by a fully permitted deep water dock that tempts landlubbers to explore the water for kayaking or fishing. The spacious living and dining area with custom bookcases, china cabinets and grand fireplace set a very gracious tone with a separate bar area leading to a breakfast room and Chef’s galley kitchen with a built in desk. A separate wing incorporates a family room perfect for casual living and a second staircase leads to an en-suite bedroom. In warm weather, sliding glass doors invite outdoor living on the beautiful blue stone patio. The generously proportioned Master Suite includes a sitting area, large walk-in closet, luxurious spa bathroom and private balcony. Two additional bedrooms and a bath complete the second floor and the convenient first floor mudroom incorporates a full laundry room. The separate three bay garage and wonderful boat house has created an exquisite waterfront property that is a peaceful sanctuary of its own.
