About this home

Offered below assessed value. An approval to develop is not required. See agent for 4 lot division plan and additional details if considering further development of existing 5 acre lot. Currently offered as an exclusive property commanding 5+ acres of private waterfront set high above Folly Cove, including a striking glass and stucco 4,500+ s.f. contemporary home connected by glassed-in breezeway to two-story 3,800+ s.f. working studio. At once fully modern and self-contained the property features an organic and open floor plan that maximizes natural light and offers kaleidoscopic views of sea, sky and gardens in most every room. The deft artisanal design and industrial-quality construction throughout produce a reassuring sense of solidity, quality and communion with the natural surroundings. A bold statement in a sleepy seaside community known for its history of providing a safe haven for artists to live and create inspired by the land and the sea.
