A RARE FIND Architect and Artist Stuart Pertz and his wife designed this house and separate studio/garage for themselves and family. It is sited for amazing views on 0.17 acres directly on Farm Creek Tidal Inlet in Rowayton's coveted Bell Island Improvement Association. Enjoy the constantly changing seasonal scenes, sunsets and the saltwater shore birds. This sophisticated 3 bedroom home with a contemporary feel has an open floor plan, large spans of glass windodoors and a wrap around deck. Designed to capture the water views and create a private internal landscaped lawn space between the 2 buildings. The 20' by 14' artist studio with beamed, cathedral ceiling and great light is perfect for painting, music, exercise, playroom, or a home business. Upstairs from the studio is a bedroom with full bath, currently used as an office. Ample storage. The attached one car garage has driveway and parking. The studio affords privacy to the lawn and the waterfront home. Adding to this oasis, only steps away, are the 2 beaches and 4 parks of Bell Island. Enjoy the Association's social events. Not to forget Rowayton's tennis, paddle, library, village, beach, parks and train.
