Property Description
Inspired by the Governor's Palace in Williamsburg, Virginia, "Somerset" is a once-in-a-lifetime offering for the discerning buyer who appreciates timeless craftsmanship and old-world grandeur. Built in 1935, this all-brick masterpiece is set atop a commanding bluff with 700 feet of unobstructed shoreline, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the Long Island Sound. Spanning 10.6 level acres on 2 separate parcels, the property features two professionally engineered seawalls, manicured specimen gardens, and lush lawns that evoke the elegance of a bygone era.
From the moment you arrive, the long, tree-lined driveway and manicured gardens transport you to another era. The home's stately presence, custom millwork, and fine appointments throughout evoke the grace and sophistication of classic architectural heritage. The elegant formal entry hall is adorned with marble flooring and features a show stopping floating staircase. Inside, you'll find rich wood floors, high ceilings, and exquisite custom millwork throughout. Banquet-sized formal living and dining rooms offer grand entertaining spaces, while a stately library with fireplace provides a cozy retreat. Natural light pours in through an abundance of windows, framing captivating water views from nearly every room, creating an ambience beyond compare.
The home features six generously sized bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with its own fireplace, full bathroom, and walk-in closet. Four fireplaces throughout the home enhance the warmth and charm of this architectural gem. The finished lower level includes a wine cellar, perfect for the collector or entertainer.
An enclosed, heated sun porch with slate flooring overlooks the sparkling gunite inground pool and pool house, offering a tranquil space to relax and entertain while enjoying the stunning water vistas. A 3-car attached garage and additional 1-car detached garage provide ample parking and storage.
Every element of the estate is a tribute to classic design, with fine appointments and craftsmanship reminiscent of classic old-world elegance. Whether enjoying the serene water views or the quiet sophistication of the home's interior, "Somerset" promises an unmatched lifestyle of refinement and grace.
Located just 60 miles from Manhattan and minutes from Stony Brook University, its renowned hospital, beaches, and marinas, "Somerset" seamlessly blends historic elegance with luxury.
This peaceful oasis offers unmatched privacy and a sense of timeless escape.
This is not just a home—it's a rare legacy property that offers privacy, prestige, and enduring beauty on one of the most coveted stretches of the Long Island Sound.
