Property Description
Where the river meets the ocean, an extraordinary waterfront legacy awaits. Discover The River Estate at Shawandassee, one of the region's most captivating riverfront estates, where 1.06 acres of meticulously manicured, park-like grounds and more than 200 feet of pristine waterfront create an unparalleled coastal sanctuary. Launch your boat from the private deep-water dock and cruise effortlessly to Long Island Sound, Fishers Island, and beyond, or spend the day enjoying the rare grandfathered waterfront boathouse complete with electricity and running water, and a private beach. Spend your days sport fishing, shellfishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, boating or simply soaking in the serenity of life on the water. Complementing this remarkable setting is a charming pony barn attached to a two-car garage and a beautifully updated 2,700-square-foot residence offering three bedrooms and three full baths. This is far more than an exceptional property-it is a once-in-a-lifetime waterfront estate where luxury, privacy, and the timeless beauty of New England's coastline come together to create a lifestyle few will ever experience. Inside, timeless craftsmanship and warmth welcome you home. The inviting living room welcomes you with hardwood floors, a classic wood-burning fireplace and a picturesque window seat perfectly, positioned to take in the patio, beautifully landscaped grounds and tranquil water views. The updated kitchen features hardwood flooring, granite countertops, an induction range, a center island and generous workspace designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. A separate laundry room and full bath with a walk-in shower provide convenience on the main level. An additional first-floor room, currently enjoyed as a family room with a fireplace, offers exceptional flexibility and can easily serve as a first-floor bedroom, complete with a walk-in closet. Upstairs, the primary suite is a peaceful retreat, featuring a private full bath, walk-in closet and a French door leading to a private balcony overlooking the pristine grounds and the Niantic River. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the second level, while the partially finished third-floor attic, with its warm wood ceiling and paneled walls, offers additional space ready to suit a variety of needs. The expansive grounds feature mature shade trees, the historic pony barn, and a sweeping lawn affectionately known as "The Park," creating the perfect setting for entertaining, outdoor recreation, or peaceful afternoons overlooking the river. With ample space for a pool, pool house, guest house, or future expansion, the possibilities are as exceptional as the setting. While the home's features are impressive, it's impossible to fully appreciate The River Estate at Shawandassee until you experience it in person. Standing along the shoreline, surrounded by panoramic river views, you'll understand why this extraordinary property has been treasured for generations. Ideally situated between New York and Boston with easy access to I-95 and Hartford, making weekend escapes and year-round living equally effortless.
