Property Description

FIRST TIME AVAILABLE IN OVER 50 YEARS! Nestled on 14.5 private acres with extraordinary views of North Cove, the Great Meadow and the Connecticut River, this property offers a rare opportunity for discerning buyers-available for the first time in over 50 years. The home's design embraces passive solar principles with walls of glass that invite natural light and offer breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. A heated free form pool with handsome stone surround enjoys the spectacular views. View eagles, herons and osprey from your patio while surrounded by marshes and woodlands protected by the Nature Conservancy. Designed by renowned architect Hugh Stubbins, a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, this iconic mid-century modern home is a true testament to timeless elegance and innovative design. The open-concept living areas seamlessly blend indoor and outdoor spaces, creating an ambiance of tranquility and connection with nature. Heated floors are a delightful luxury in the Living room, Dining room and Kitchen. An AGA stove plus a Viking stove, Subzero refrigerator, granite counters, and a butcher block island prep area and seating area with fireplace are highlights of the Kitchen. A secondary area of the Kitchen has space for after party clean up and storage with two dishwashers and second sink.
