The Boathouse. Remarkable circa 1923 Tudor boathouse designed by renown architect Henry C. Pelton, best known for building The Cloisters and Riverside Church in NYC. The property also includes 3.11 acres with an approved building envelope. The property faces southwest with distant views of the Manhattan skyline, Beachside Avenue in Westport, Southport Harbor and the Country Club of Fairfield golf course. There is a private beach and the property has been approved to build a 100 foot dock. Stepping inside there is a Banquet Room (25'4 x 17'9) with pegged, random width oak floors, a fireplace dated 1923, and vaulted timbered ceiling. There is Galley kitchen and half bath adjoining. The Great Room is next (17x17) also with oak floors and two pairs of French Doors to seaside balcony. Spiral staircase from Sea Level to Second story sleeping loft and Ladder up to top of the Watch Tower. At the sea level, open wrought iron gates open to Long Island Sound. You could never replicate this boathouse today given current regulations and zoning restrictions. Truly one of a kind!
