On one of the highest summits in Essex, this extraordinary European designed home sits on over ten private and secluded acres surveying its realm- the Lower Connecticut River Valley. The stunning views highlight the breathtaking Connecticut River out to Long Island Sound and the boat filled harbors of Essex and Hamburg Cove. For the yachtsman, there is easy access to wonderful yacht clubs and marinas that can accommodate the most extraordinary water craft. Summer brings parades of classic yachts, in spring eagles soar outside the walls of glass, and in winter the sun reflects off ice floes. Built under the guidance of Swedish craftsmen, the residence was constructed using premium materials and superior workmanship and appointed with many continental architectural details, including a distinctive red tile roof, masonry stucco, wooden beams, hand made French tiles and five European fireplaces with raised hearths. There are both large scale formal rooms perfect for sparkling occasions and warm comfortable rooms for casual gatherings, and a separate bedroom suite can be utilized as a separate apartment. The aerie of the home is the spectacular master suite with a wood burning fireplace, spacious dressing room, exquisite marble bath and private deck capturing the unparalleled views. A lovely heated pool, multilevel terraces, decks and a long gracious and private drive complete the property. This is an estate to be treasured from one generation to the next.
