WABI SABI BLISS WITH BREATHTAKING VIEWS

About the Space

This light-filled 5000 sq foot mid-century modern Japanese home on the bluff overlooking Long Island Sound celebrates the beauty of nature, with large sliding glass doors that open to an uninterrupted 260-degree water view The great room is surrounded by 3 glass walls (each 2 stories high). A wooden curved ceiling tilts up to the sky as birds soar at eye-level over the water. Every room has a water view, Modern furnishings, a hanging fireplace, live-edge wooden tables, frosted sliding doors, a library wall and a vintage La Cornue oven all embue the space with simple, serene elegance. The Zen mood is enhanced by a Sonos sound system, Shoji screens, heated toilets and spa tubs. The 5-acre property - just an hour and a half from Manhattan and 45 minutes from Southampton - is beautifully landscaped, including a sunken Japanese garden with water feature and fire pit, as well as a tennis court complete with viewing pavilion. A picnic table on a cliff overlooking the water provides a romantic dinner setting, and the lush lawn is perfect for yoga or games from croquet to pickle ball. Every night at sunset it’s showtime: the water reflects an ever-changing palette of color and shapes that lasts long after the sun has set. At night, the lights of New Haven shine on the Connecticut shoreline like a necklace of pearls.
