This 5,000-square-foot, multi-generational residence and surrounding property affords a rare opportunity to enhance one’s quality of life with its sublime location, superb construction and design, and its prestigious legacy pedigree.
Built in 1948, this Cape Cod-style waterfront estate provides the ultimate combination of day-to-day living qualities that are both comfortable and charming, with the amenities and features of a home built for gracious entertaining and accommodation.
Located on Aberdeen Creek with views out to the South River, the property’s sprawling floorplan affords waterfront vistas from nearly every room; a total of 374 feet of sandy waterfront shoreline. Despite its expansive frontage, the home is well-situated on a lot that was expertly landscaped to provide a uniquely private living experience.
Inside, elegant old bones blend beautifully with today’s prized modern amenities. The primary entrance (the home has two separate front entries) offers an elegant introduction with its grand, long reception area with luscious hardwood floors and a regal wood-burning fireplace.
There is another fireplace in the formal, water-facing living room with vaulted ceiling. This spacious room is accented with generous built-ins, large windows, and two sets of double doors that lead to one of several of the home’s gorgeous paver patio living spaces. A formal, sunny dining room with lovely wood beam treatment is available for life’s special occasions.
The large kitchen is an all-white work of art with its center, butcher block and tile island leading the eye to the magnificent water view from the room’s sunlit breakfast nook. Gorgeous custom cabinetry, with upper glass-front doors, accents a rustic-tiled backsplash. Windows at the opposite end of the room offer cozy built-in seating, and bookshelves and storage space on either side,
A cozy, sunny family room with brilliant views, wood-burning fireplace, and charming white wood beams is located just steps from the breakfast nook. Also, on this level, the floorplan offers a billiards room, and a full, main level living guest suite with en suite bath and separate entry, that could also be used as a primary suite.
A second primary suite is located on the upper level. An oasis of its own, this room faces the water and features a darling sitting nook, a room-sized walk-in closet with water views, and an en suite bath with double vanity and huge walk-in shower. There are two additional bedrooms, a library, and various home office opportunities on this floor and throughout the home.
The outside environment of this home is an unparalleled mix of gracious paver patios with opportunities for outdoor dining and gathering, exquisite grounds and gardens with an expert selection of perennials, paths, and other plantings, and the property’s highlight, a deep-water private pier with access to a lifetime of sunsets.
“It was an absolute honor to assist with the sale of this exquisite multi-generational waterfront estate,” says Brad Kappel of TTR Sotheby’s. “A true legacy property like no other.”
