Property Description

Built in 1955, this midcentury modern waterfront home on Perkins Lane is defined by its relationship to the water, with 75 feet of waterfront and expansive, unobstructed views across the sound. Nearly every room is oriented to capture light, sky, and water, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out.The home offers five bedrooms, three and a half baths, and a dedicated office, providing both scale and flexibility for everyday living and entertaining. Below the main home, a separate office structure offers a quiet, private retreat for writing, remote work, or creative pursuits—set apart while remaining visually connected to the water. Comfortable for year-round living, the home includes air conditioning and is ready for thoughtful restoration, presenting a rare opportunity to preserve and elevate an authentic midcentury design. Evenings are best spent watching the sun set over the sound from the backyard. A one-car garage is complemented by additional off-street parking.Homes of this caliber—combining architectural significance, waterfront presence, and enduring views—are seldom available.
