Life in Westport! Enjoy gorgeous distant ocean views out the front overlooking Allen's Pond Sanctuary, and breathtaking pastoral views out the back. It is a buyer's dream, EVERYTHING has been done and the house lives very comfortably with an open floor plan and easy flow. The colors and spaces in the home create a warm, welcoming and unpretentious atmosphere. A wonderful new wing, presently used as family room, exercise room and more could be easily exchanged for a spacious first floor master suite . Upstairs is a roomy master bedroom and bath with 2 additional bedrooms sharing a full bath off a wide hall with desk area. The retro kitchen is very well done with all of the modern conveniences. Outdoor living is enjoyed on a charming blue stone patio overlooking open fields and glimpsing the blue of the ocean in the distance. East Beach is an easy walk down Horseneck Road and Allen's Pond Sanctuary offers extensive trail systems overlooking Buzzard's Bay. A piece of heaven.
