84 Hobson Street

Water Views, Without the Waterfront Price Tag. Set toward the top of a gently sloping street, this home captures sweeping views of Long Island Sound from an elevated vantage point - the visual benefit of waterfront living, without the taxes or price premium that come with it. A rare position in Shippan Point. A grand two-story entry welcomes you in, anchored by a curved staircase and open-air balcony overlooking those views. Sunlight fills every level, rooms are scaled for comfortable living, and custom millwork adds a tailored, high-end feel throughout. The standout: the seller has already run a gas line to the home and pulled pool permits, transferable to the new owner for one year - meaning the next owner can break ground almost immediately, skipping the usual permitting delays. The backyard is primed and ready: level, fenced, and set on a third of an acre with room for both a pool and outdoor entertaining. A flexible downstairs room works as an office, guest suite, or au pair quarters with private yard access. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite steals the show, with a private deck offering panoramic water views that stretch across the Sound - a front-row seat to sunrise coffee or sunset wine. Three additional bedrooms and a marble-clad bath with dual vanities and soaking tub complete the level. Located in Shippan Point, just 48 minutes to Manhattan by rail - coastal living with the beach steps away.
