Property Description
Exemplifying coastal elegance, this 5-bedroom, 7,032-square-foot Shingle-style Cape estate enjoys an enviable perch on the banks of Megansett Harbor. Lush with green grass, perennial day lilies, and thriving trees and landscaping, the exceedingly private 2.68-acre property features more than 750' of water frontage, which affords expansive views from nearly every vantage point. At the end of a long drive, surrounded by flourishing mature trees, the home and its iconic style are introduced by timeless wood and cedar shingles; numerous divided light, bay, and Palladian windows with custom stained-glass detailing; and classical columns. From an architecturally striking designed foyer that features a tall ceiling, a glass chandelier, and a grand central stairway, spaces with maple and cherry hardwood flooring flow effortlessly: a window-wrapped living room, a formal dining room with a large bay window and a handsomely detailed fireplace, a wood-paneled library with a bay window and a fireplace, and a family room with a soaring ceiling, clerestory and Palladian windows, a stunning stacked-stone fireplace, and French doors to a small covered front porch and a harbor and ocean view deck.
