Upon entering this gated storybook property, one arrives at the wisteria covered trellised doorway of this magnificent, shingled style masterpiece. Sited on 2.1 manicured acres, with 200 bulkheaded feet on Gardiners Bay and an elevated sun deck just above the water's edge for lounging and al fresco dining. Designed by famed architect, Dan Maselli, with gardens by renowned landscape architect, Edmund Hollander. The exquisite details and quality are impressive to the most discerning eye. Be swept through the double height entry into the living room by the panoramic views of Gardiners Bay out to Connecticut. The infinity pool appears to pour into the bay offering the illusion of a contiguous water flow. On the first floor of the Main House the gracious waterside living room has a wood burning fireplace and the waterside formal dining room has a wood burning fireplace, as well. The paneled library with gas fireplace is adjacent to a generous study. The state-of-the-art kitchen, with high end appliances, connects to a butler's pantry, washer dryer and half bath. Enjoy the summer breezes off the water from the screened-in porch. The second-floor primary bedroom sits on the water side of the house with magnificent vistas across to Connecticut. Two ensuite guest rooms offer the same views, one with a vast terrace. The third ensuite guest room offers views across the manicured lawns and specimen plantings. There is a finished lower level offering the same quality and amenities as the rest of this pristine masterpiece. The guest house has an elegant bedroom suite with a generous full bath, powder room, outdoor shower, studio and a 2-car garage. Plans for a tennis court complete an extraordinary package. This is one of the most coveted properties on Shelter Island.
