West Coast style in Westport
Sleek, modern lines with views of Long Island Sound
Awaken to spectacular sunrises over Long Island Sound in this modern waterfront estate poised on over two acres within walking distance to Southport Village and beach. Designed by award- winning architect David Preusch in 2018, the sleek West Coast style and refreshing minimalism create a home that could easily be found in the Hollywood Hills. The ultimate in a waterfront lifestyle is at hand in this spectacular 8,109square- foot modern marvel brimming with refined sophistication and sweeping views at every turn.
It was the sleek, modern lines and walls of windows with expansive views of Long Island Sound that attracted the owners to this distinctive residence.
“It possesses a unique and timeless design, with a minimalist, easy open feel, and unobstructed water views from every room,” the owners commented. “And it is in the best coastal location in Southern Connecticut. We enjoy Westport residency and amenities while essentially living in Southport Village and on Southport Beach.”
Dramatic use of glass and light invite panoramic water views into every room. LaCantina multi- sliding glass doors open to three levels of decks and balconies forming a seamless backdrop of water and sky. Masterful design and modern luxury meld to form a clean backdrop for everyday living. The open living room and dining room feature a linear fireplace and an antique smoked glass wall over a custom built- in banquette, creating an exquisite setting for beautiful dinner parties as Long Island Sound beckons in the background.
“The surroundings of water, marsh, wildlife, sunrises and sunsets is relentlessly striking and beautiful 24/ 7,” the owners added.
The gourmet kitchen creates a bold space among luminous Glassos countertops, high- gloss custom cabinetry, high- end Miele and Sub- Zero appliances and an oversized Calacatta quartz island as a gathering point. The kitchen opens to a sun- drenched breakfast room as well as a gracious and inviting family room with gas fireplace surrounded by custom built- ins including a Europeanstyle bar.
A Mad Men- inspired study forms the perfect home office on the main level with glass doors to the inviting terrace.
Indoor/ outdoor living is redefined as glass doors open to the stunning outdoor kitchen pavilion where guests can flow between the sprawling stone terraces and decks that envelope the pavilion and the glistening midnight blue saltwater gunite pool and spa.
The zen- like outdoor living and dining vignettes by acclaimed Robin Kramer Garden Design include a dramatic galvanized steel pergola at the edge of the pool, a modern water feature, terraces and vibrant gardens. A Buddha statue from Indonesia keeps watch over the outdoor oasis.
A dramatic floating quartz staircase ascends to the upper level, where a glass balcony and curved wall lead to the master suite with private deck and custom master closet. There are three more bedrooms on this level including a second master suite on the opposite wing with a spa- like bath and deck, while another bedroom suite enjoys serene views of Sasco Creek.
A ground level entertainment hub is home to a game room, home office, state- of- the- art home theater, fitness room, sauna and 400- bottle wine cellar. An additional bedroom and bathroom with its own private entrance to the terrace creates the ideal accommodations for an in- law or au pair.
