LOCATION. LOCATION. LOCATION. Set on high ground within the coveted Pine Point Association, 22 Ensign Road occupies one of the most thoughtfully positioned parcels along the coast. Elevated above the flood zone and anchored on solid rock, the property offers both peace of mind and enduring value. Panoramic water views unfold in every direction - Long Island Sound, Farm Creek below, and Long Island visible in the distance. The setting captures sweeping vistas without compromise. Importantly, there are no overhead wires disrupting the sight lines, just open sky, clean lines, and uninterrupted water views - an increasingly rare offering along the shoreline. Privately situated yet conveniently close to Rowayton Village, beaches, marinas, and train access, 22 Ensign balances seclusion with accessibility. A rare opportunity to own a high-elevation coastal property in one of Rowayton's most desirable waterfront associations, out of the zooming rush of summer traffic. Close when you want to be, removed when you need to breathe. Around it, houses rise and fall: flood repairs, rebuilds, constant reinvention. 22 Ensign Road stands steady, dry, elevated, thoughtfully updated, and rooted in rock and history.
