The scene feels pulled from the pages of a storybook: a peaceful coastal lane lined with manicured hedges and stalwart trees winds away from a sandy private beach and dock on the waters of Greenwich Cove. Along the way, a clandestine arch cut carefully and discreetly into the privet lures the eye toward a swath of lush lawn, flourishing flower and vegetable gardens, and vibrant hydrangeas. Just beyond sits a quintessential New England residence with handsome cedar shingles, eye-catching wood trim, stone chimneys, and multiple covered porches designed to capture ocean views and breezes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This charismatic 6,852-square-foot home, designed by award-winning architect Steven Mueller in the coveted private waterfront association of Lucas Point in Old Greenwich, offers a rare opportunity to live amid this picture-perfect tableau. Some 2,000 square feet of outdoor living spaces on multiple levels encourages appreciation of dramatic sunsets and serene sunrises over Long Island Sound. French doors run nearly the full length of the front and back of the residence, admitting floods of glorious natural light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Living<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A stately porte cochere creates a fittingly grand introduction, which begins with an impressive foyer whose ceiling soars to the height of three levels. All of the home\u2019s inviting areas flow from this central space: a living room with a striking coffered ceiling, an elegant formal dining room with a verdant view, a welcoming study with a fireplace and custom built-ins, an open-concept chef\u2019s kitchen with an island and top-caliber appliances, and an adjoining family room. The lower level\u2014a rarity in this historic waterfront locale\u2014offers a media room, a gym, a secluded bedroom suite, a storage room with shelving, and a versatile space ideal for use as an office, a yoga studio, or a recreation room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"primary<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One of five restful bedrooms, the luxurious primary suite gazes out toward the water from its private balcony and includes two walk-in closets and a grand marble-appointed bath with Waterworks vanities and fixtures. This oasis shares its level with three guest bedrooms with distinct aesthetics and custom built-ins. The uppermost level, which overlooks the foyer below, gives way to a remarkable porch, an ideal spot for watching boats as they sail by on the sound, the sun as it rises over the water, or stars as they sparkle at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"backyard<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The main level\u2019s banks of French doors allow for an effortless flow between the stylish interiors and the professionally landscaped grounds. Creating a veil of privacy, mature privet hedges and colorful hydrangeas frame an expanse of emerald grass that affords ample room for established vegetable and flower gardens as well as the future addition of a swimming pool. The estate\u2019s enviable position, on one of the neighborhood\u2019s largest properties and atop one of the highest spots in Lucas Point, well above the flood line, makes this an elevated retreat in both the literal and the figurative sense of the word. All the delightful diversions of nearby Tod’s Point\u2014miles of waterfront trails and beaches\u2014are mere minutes away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
