Property Description
“Sandbar” is an authentic Nantucket Shingle-style home on the beach in affluent Westport, Connecticut. Built in 2008 with a generous budget, this secluded 4-bedroom waterfront home with incredible water views is exactly the get-away you imagine - and only an hour’s drive from New York City.
The 5567 sf natural wood home is in a gated community of waterfront homes, all accessed by foot bridge. The private fenced property opens to a salt water cove, perfect for wading, boating, more.
The visionary owner-designer of “Sandbar” teamed up with notable local craftsmen for this New England labor of love, including architect Brooke Girty, renowned for her authentic coastal homes. Of special note is the 3-story spiral staircase which mimics a Nautilus shell. The luxury is subtle, impressive. The flawless finishing and furnishings are as relevant today as tomorrow. The simplicity of using timeless elements of wood and stone, marble and glass, silver and brass, cashmere and wool, is both refreshing and comforting.
Every detail from construction to styling to furnishing is thoughtful. Nearly every room has a view. 100-year oak slab flooring imported from France is used throughout the home, while the smooth paneled walls and coffered ceilings are painted glossy creamy white. Reclaimed glass was built into new kitchen cabinetry. The hand-picked designer furnishings and appointments (many are unique from shops abroad) are included - even the dishes! - making this a turnkey home ready for immediate occupancy.
The property includes a small shed with storage, half-bath and outdoor shower. City water, city sewer. 1-car garage and 4 parking spaces on mainland. RE Taxes: $63,700. Flood insurance: $608 py.
