About this home
The iconic "Lighthouse" is perfection from top to bottom. Five spacious harbor-view decks provide a multitude of outdoor entertaining options. The wonderful gourmet kitchen opens to a spacious sun-filled living room with fireplace. In the tower is a lovely mid level dining room with fireplace, and above is the spectacular circular tower room with fireplace and spectacular harbor views. Amenities include top of the line appliances including a warming over and multiple dishwashers, washer/dryers, and beverage fridges. Systems include Buderus and Viessman heating/cooling, a whole house generator and security system. Recent updates include a stunning master suite, reminiscent of St. Barth's luxury with his and her walk-in closets, additional laundry room, a large walk-in shower, vaulted beamed ceilings and one of the harbor view decks. Steps from the new St. Barts wing is a new oversized garage with large upper space for storage or potential office. A private outdoor area includes a spa and outdoor dining/seating/tv. The Lighthouse is tucked-in on a quiet private road with tall hedges and layers of plantings for privacy. The stunning views encompass the harbor, bridge and Fort Adams along with never ending marine activity. The front row harborfront site is within walking distance to the Ida Lewis and New York Yacht Clubs and down town restaurants and shopping.
