Location, size and character: 5-bedrooms, 3-full baths, granite/stainless kitchen, 10+ ceiling fans, MBR with balcony and sunroom, granite front steps and walkway and located just a quarter mile/5-min walk (or even shorter bike ride or golf cart ride) to Lordship's beachfront/Long Island Sound. Have a large family, multiple businesses or hobbies that have you yearning for more space? Take this 2,583SF of "above-grade" living space, along with it 1200SF+ unfinished basement (and 4000+ gross-square feet in-all), and make it your own. Don't need 5-bedrooms? ...Expand the main level community/family-room space or combine them into a secondary MBR or in-law setup (flexible options within an existing footprint makes for cost-effective possibilities :). The opened loft-like space at the top of the stairs/upstairs hallway also offers flexible possibilities. And as for storage, in addition to the 1200SF+ basement, there is a 17x22 garage/workshop and shed behind the garage. The house isn't too big, just uniquely spacious for a home in such close proximity the water. Come see.
