Since 1640, one family has provided careful stewardship of this unique parcel graced by a combination of historic and sought-after mid-century modern house. The original 1820 stone wing contains two bedrooms and a full bath on the ground floor, a bedroom plus full bath and storge room above, and a tap room with large stone fireplace on the lower level. In the early 1950's, the owners replaced an aging farmhouse with a new, architect-designed living space which retains its mid-century open floor plan and access to incredible water views of Long Island Sound and the CT River Lighthouse at Fenwick Point. The newer wing contains an open Kitchen/Dining Area, Screened-in Porch, Living Room with wood-burning fireplace, plus the Master Bedroom Suite with dressing room and bath. A glassed atrium with stone floors connects old and new sections of the house and houses a gardener's potting workroom with sink. The entire concept is to bring light and the view into the house. The grounds are private with a sweeping lawn overlooking a separate 26+ acre hayfield conserved by a conservation easement. A large, historic barn overlooks a wildlife rich kettle pond and a CT River view. Now, a new owner can continue to enjoy this special place of peace and privacy. This property, #17 Old Shore Road must be sold together with neighboring land #19 Old Shore Road MLS #170089630 which provides the water access. Total package price of $1,987,000.
