This listing benefits from everything Rowayton has to offer. The property sits on the tidal estuary of Farm Creek and abuts the 16 acre nature preserve owned by the Norwalk Land Trust. Serene views with tremendous bird life. A dock allows for access to LI Sound. This house has been extensively renovated in recent years. The first floor features a living room with fireplace as well as an open dining room and gourmet kitchen with large island. The entire rear of the house looks out on to the level yard and the waters of Farm Creek. In addition, there is a bedroom with en-suite bath as well as an entry foyer and mudroom on the first level. The second floor features two en-suite bedrooms -- both with views of the water and nature preserve. The master suite has its own staircase up to the third floor which is a finished bonus room. Enjoy sitting on the stone patio overlooking the water and the land trust property or use your own dock to launch your kayak or paddleboard. The perfect Rowayton location with just a short walk to Bayley Beach (1,200 feet) and town (less than 1,200 feet to Rowayton Seafood or 101).
