NEW PRICE. Set back from Middle Beach Rd and sited 25' above sea level (so no flood insurance needed!) with deeded beach rights and views of Long Island Sound is a like-new (completed in 2023) charming 4 bedroom, Cape Cod style home on an unusually large 1.12 acre lot. The open plan's first floor has a cathedral ceiling in the living room with a gas-lit stone fireplace, a dining area, and a fully equipped eat-in kitchen adjacent to a mud room leading to the attached garage. The first floor primary bedroom has a large bathroom and an enormous walk-in closet, the object of many dreams. A den/office and a powder room complete the first floor. The second floor has three spacious bedrooms, a family bathroom and a large room currently used as an art studio but could be a large bright bedroom. There are two porches - one overlooks the water and the other, the back yard. A full, unfinished basement and unfinished space above the garage also offer endless possibilities. Access this special property via Pheasant Drive.
