Facing the serene Long Island Sound and backed by the tranquil South Bay, every corner of this home offers unmatched water views.

From the richly appointed office and welcoming library to the numerous bedrooms, there is space for everyone in this 3315 sq ft residence. Embrace the daily indulgences and peacefulness of waterfront living, where invigorating sea breezes blend with nature's scenery, featuring Osprey, Bald Eagles, and Heron as your neighboring companions. Watch sailboats glide by and indulge in fishing off your own private dock. Dive into the coastal lifestyle with a personal boat launch, an outdoor shower for post-swim refreshment, and clamming adventures just a stroll away. Marvel at captivating sunsets from the second-level deck, and cozy up by the fireside during winter evenings. Welcome to Barefoot, where every step leads to a new adventure.
