Overview

Description

Imagine being the first to arrive at a rare and beautiful location: Life is simpler and pure joy is gazing across an expanse of water at the horizon knowing that you can claim any portion of it as your own.

Flanked by two water exposures; 330'+- on Buzzards Bay to the west and 270'+- on the post card perfect Quissett Harbor to the east. This property boasts two private stretches of shoreline, your own boathouse and private dock and a majestic residence featuring nine bedrooms with over 8,000 square feet of living space set on about four acres. Return to a simpler time, where life is defined by the elemental beauty of sea, sky and family. Please verify all information contained herein.
