This is more than a home—it’s a coastal lifestyle. Follow the steps to the water and dive into the cove at high tide, or wander the beautiful beach at low tide. The views are simply unparalleled. Spend your evenings on the upper deck as the sunset sets the seascape ablaze with color.The chef’s kitchen features nearly new Thermador appliances, reclaimed American heart pine floors, and an oversized island perfect for casual dining. A 10-foot picture window, installed last year, frames the ever-changing coastal scenery. The living room, with its inviting fireplace, opens to a charming covered porch—ideal for outdoor dining from morning coffee to evening meals.Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers breathtaking views stretching beyond Eastern Point. A second-floor family room with access to the upper deck is especially magical in the summer and could be converted into a third bedroom. Welcome to Rocky Neck—a destination people love to visit and a place you’ll be proud to call home.
