About this home

This Hancock Point compound enjoys an idyllic oceanfront setting on expansive, deepwater gravel beach. Staring SE over miles of ocean, the main home, Salt Pond House, has 2 wings, both sharing a kitchen & dining room. Each wing displays a living room, bedroom, large sleeping loft & full bath. West Wing is fresh from extensive renovation. The layout of Salt Pond House is refreshingly unique, lending itself to large summer gatherings of friends & loved ones. Guest cottage, The Puddle, provides open kitchen/dining/living, 2 bedrooms, full bath & unfinished 2nd floor. Sweeping lawn leads to 155' of owned frontage on spectacular Carters Beach within a sheltered cove on Sullivan Harbor. Property's western boundary abuts Salt Pond Preserve, forever protected by Frenchman Bay Conservancy & Crabtree Neck Land Trust. The Bean, The Porcupine Islands several other outlying islands and even Egg Rock Lighthouse are also held in conservation, locking in this classic viewshed for generations to come.
