About this home
Chic style & history blend effortlessly at this enchanted home and property. "OTTER HAVEN" is offered for sale for the first time in nearly 30 years. Only two families have been stewards of this special residence since the time it was built as a wedding gift for the original owner. Set atop a gentle knoll on .67 +/- acre of prime, park-like property in the heart of Westport's prized Imperial area, this well-sited home captures gorgeous light and sunsets. The oversized lot is among the most gracious and large properties this close to the train to NYC, w/sidewalks leading to both the Saugatuck area & downtown Westport, with shopping, dining and recreation options - plus nearby Compo Beach & Longshore Club Park. Sophisticated yet comfortable, the unexpectedly spacious interior of this home still showcases many original details, lovingly preserved alongside modern updates. The grand-scale LR has a cozy area beside the lodge-inspired fireplace, as well as an entertaining-sized seating area w/picture window, built-ins, high-gloss beamed ceiling & French doors to a stone-accented sun porch. The updated kitchen w/stone counters and Miele, KitchenAid & Fisher-Paykel appliances has an island, desk, & open flow through to the holiday-sized DR. A graceful archway leads to the fam rm w/rear porch & powder bath. Upstairs, four sun-splashed BRs provide room for all, and a modernized bath showcases vintage tile. An office was created from the 2nd full bth w/plumbing in place. Full basement.
