Own a year-round waterfront FEMA compliant home as well as a seasonal guest cottage set on Fence Creek. The main house (#146) boasts 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths AND an attached garage. Also included is a charming, seasonal, 320 sq ft. Guest Cottage (#141) with ever-changing marsh views with a garage underneath & rarely available, extra parking! Both make the perfect compound for summer months or #146 is a fantastic, full-time seaside retreat. Enjoy the open concept on the 1st floor with panoramic views of Long Island Sound & Tuxis Island w/luxurious, heated marble floors! The wet bar in Family Room flows wonderfully into the Kitchen/Dining Room, allowing for a perfect entertainment space to watch the town’s annual 4th of July fireworks from the comfort of your own home! Escape to the third floor for a private office or set up a telescope on the walk-out deck for a picturesque night under the stars. The home has show-stopping curb appeal, w/newer paver driveway, low maintenance yard & a stone veneer foundation–but what is hidden to the eye is truly spectacular. The home is FEMA compliant w/meticulous industrial engineering. The elevated structure is bolted to steel I-beams & is reinforced w/corrugated steel walls under the sheetrock. It has breakaway walls on the lowest level, about 22 reinforced columns and Marvin grade 3-155 miles per hour hurricane windows. Taxes/Assessment, SF, Room Count & Acreage reflect both properties (141 & 146 Middle Beach: 2 separate field cards).
This incredibly well constructed, updated, year-round WATERFRONT home also comes with an adorable, Seasonal Guest Cottage that has Fence Creek marsh views, coveted and rarely offered ADDITIONAL parking, as well as an oversized 1-car garage! What a luxury package property! And, to say this home is FEMA compliant is an understatement. Ask me how the prior owner elevated this home--as there isn't enough space here to go into all of the details! *Town records indicate 2420 total sf. Offers must be accompanied by Pre-Approval letter or Proof of Funds, if cash.
