Water Views Take Center Stage - And the Pool Is Already Approved. A grand two-story entry welcomes you in, anchored by a curved staircase and an open-air balcony that pulls your eye straight toward the southeastern light and sweeping vistas of Long Island Sound. Sunlight pours through every level, rooms are scaled for comfortable living, and custom millwork throughout adds a tailored, high-end feel - all set up beautifully for hosting. Here's the standout: the seller has already installed a gas line from the street to the home and pulled permits for an in-ground pool, transferable to the new owner for one year. That means the next party can start construction almost immediately, skipping the permitting delays most homeowners face. The backyard is already primed for it - level, fully fenced, and set on a third of an acre with plenty of room for both a pool and outdoor entertaining space off the patio. Downstairs, a flexible room works equally well as a home office, guest suite, or au pair quarters, with its own private access to the yard. Upstairs, four more bedrooms round out the floor plan, led by an expansive primary suite complete with a private deck overlooking the water, an oversized walk-in closet, and a marble-clad bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a walk-in shower built for two. Set in the desirable Shippan Point neighborhood, with an easy 48-minute commute into Manhattan by rail - this is coastal living with the beach just steps away.
