A Seaside Classic, with Modern Touches


The wraparound porch offers views of Long Island Sound.

Located in the historic Sachem’s Head area of Guilford, this 1900 home has direct waterfront on South Bay and views of the bay and Long Island Sound from every window and from the charming wraparound porch.

Although the home has a classic beach style, recent renovations have only made it better. Skylights and new windows bring the sea light into every room.

It has a gourmet kitchen with granite countertops and fine cabinetry. A two-room au pair suite or office includes a bedroom, a full bath, and a separate entrance for privacy.

Sachem’s Head is a peninsula with no through traffic, making for enjoyable walking, running, and biking with spectacular views. Membership in the association provides access to tennis, paddle tennis, beach, a kayak and canoe rack, a boat launch, and mooring.

This home is being offered for sale by William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty for $849,000. For more information or a showing, contact Peter W. Cowie at 203-500-4422.
