You will be instantly smitten by this year-round coastal beach house on a private island-like peninsula with sweeping views of Long Island Sound and overlooking a serene cove. This unique home is perfect for the naturalist, water enthusiast, or folks who just want to unplug and relax! Located high on a secluded promontory with water on three sides, this Pine Orchard retreat feels more like Monterey with its rocky prominences, mature trees and flower gardens. There are stunning water views from every vantage point, with Long Island Sound and the Thimble Islands as a backdrop. The house is just shy of 2500 square feet and has four bedrooms and three full baths, including one bedroom in a private guest suite with its own living room and kitchen. Ideal as a year-round residence or weekend/summer escape, this one-of-a-kind location is only two hours by train or car from Times Square, and two-and-a-half hours from Faneuil Hall. It’s also just 20 minutes away from New Haven, which is home to Yale University, world class museums, nationally recognized theaters, a vibrant music scene and over 50 Zagat-rated restaurants. In addition, this home is just a 5-minute walk to a private country club with a golf course, tennis and pickle ball courts, a marina and casual dining. Best of all, the house sits between two beautiful, sandy beaches, the largest of which features boat racks, a fire pit and a swimming float – all just steps away from your front door.
