Pair the classic elegance of Cameron Clark’s signature millwork with the very latest in modern updates and place it in Fairfield’s most prestigiou­s location with spectacula­r water views and the result is this captivatin­g Sasco Hill estate. Also known as 6 Sasco Point, the majestic colonial is perfectly sited upon over two sweeping acres of manicured grounds and tiered terraces with views stretching to Long Island Sound. The year-round water views were a tremendous draw to the owners when they first purchased the home, along with the premier Sasco Hill location with its proximity to beaches and downtown Fairfield and Southport. “Sasco Hill is one of the most coveted streets in all of Fairfield County, noted for its stunning properties and year-round water views,” said listing agent Cindy Raney. “Sasco Beach is within walking distance, the golf course is in view, and you are close to the best of living that Fairfield and Southport have to offer.”

The formal living room and dining room both have water views and access to the terrace, with the living room featuring an expansive bay window and multiple sets of French doors to the terrace. Sleek and stylish, the modern kitchen boasts two center islands, top-of-the-line appliances, butler’s pantry, and a sunny breakfast area that is open to the family room and the patio for alfresco dining. The family room shines with a stunning coffered ceiling with eye-catching blue accents for a pop of color, a set of triple arched French doors to the terrace, and a generous wet bar for entertaini­ng convenienc­e.

The second floor is home to six bedrooms and five exceptiona­l baths. The primary suite offers a tranquil escape including a sitting room with fireplace, a private balcony to watch the sunrise, and a widows walk. “This space is truly one of a kind,” said Raney. “It is so private, serene, and offers remarkable views of Long Island Sound.” The luxurious bath offers a bird’s eye view from the jacuzzi tub, along with an atrium door to the balcony.
