The Poetic Description

The home’s Zillow listing describes the home as follows:

A symphony of sea surrounds this stunning waterfront shingle-style home. This is a “legacy home,” built for the ages, with a gentle formality etched in elegance.

Constructed with exacting detail and uncompromising standards. Private beach, indoor heated pool complex, office, gym, billiard, media room, and elevator.

This gracious home is perched atop a gentle knoll overlooking a pageantry of sunrises — with a cast of majestic ferries and ships passing in the night, tantalizing water views, iconic lighthouses, and stone outcroppings — a waterfront emporium where your water wishes are fulfilled.

Ideally situated midway between New York and Boston and minutes to downtown New London, Mystic, historic Mystic Seaport, Olde Mistick Village, fabulous shoreline beaches, charter fishing, world class entertainment and fine dining at Foxwoods Casino and Mohegan Sun Casino, antiques, and wineries.

In town train service (Amtrak and Shoreline East), as well as in town ferry service to Long Island, Fishers Island and Block Island, and a state pier for seagoing cargo. New London is a seaport city and port of entry on the northeast coast of the United States located at the mouth of the Thames River.

For several decades New London was one of the world’s busiest whaling ports. The deep harbor also became a base of American Naval operations during the revolutionary war, and is now home to the United States Coast Guard Academy. Come, be a part of something special.
