As you view this 1931 estate and learn the unrepeatable details of its magnificent construction, this stately residence confirms it was built for this waterfront location, not just placed on it.

Over the past 23 years, the owner has made many upgrades: Electrical, Heating, Lighting, Commercial Alarm system, Window Well Drainage System, Seawall, Roof w/ice shield, & more. All this to safeguard the home while bringing a lighter flair and more contemporary feel to the interior without sacrificing its elegance.* The sequence of spaces tells it all.
