About this home

Welcome to 20 Lighthouse Way, where coming home means stepping straight into a waterfront lifestyle. With a private boat mooring and the Long Island Sound at your doorstep, the transition from the workday to the water is effortless. Launch a paddleboard for a sunset outing, hop in a kayak, take the boat out for a spontaneous cruise, or enjoy waterskiing-all from your own backyard. Here, the best part of the day may be what happens after you get home. The heart of the home is a newly renovated, crisp white kitchen that flows effortlessly into a sun-drenched dining area and spacious family room centered around a cozy fireplace. Whether hosting a summer soiree or enjoying a quiet morning coffee, the open floor plan feels airy and intuitive. For those who need space to spread out, the first floor is versatile, featuring a bright living room with fireplace, dedicated office, oversized playroom, and functional mudroom with ample storage to keep coastal life organized. Upstairs, the primary suite and a second bedroom offer breathtaking water views, serving as private sanctuaries to watch the sun sparkle on the water. With four bedrooms and three updated baths, there is ample space, plus the flexibility to easily convert back to a five-bedroom layout. Outdoor living is elevated here-literally. Expansive decks on both levels overlook the water, providing the ultimate backdrop for alfresco dining and family gatherings.

Recent comparable sales

The 5 closest recent sales to this home, nearest match first — same building where possible, then the surrounding streets, widening only when there is nothing closer. These are recorded sale prices from the MLS, not estimates. No automated valuation is shown, because what a home is worth depends on condition, layout and timing that a formula cannot see — call John at 203·883·3399 to read them properly against this home.

5 comparable sales — median $3,510,000, ranging $3,350,000 to $4,300,000.

Public record
