A gorgeous Connecticut home in the waterfront community of Southport just hit the market this week for $12 million, and we’re giving you one of the first peeks. In 2021, top design professionals worked on breathing new life into this home, which was entirely rebuilt except for the structural frame. Architect Christopher Pagliaro, designer Leia T. Ward of LTW Design, Spire Construction, Freddy & Co Landscaping were the dream team to bring a beautiful vision to life for the current sellers.
The residence—complete with a glass gallery, two-story foyer, two-car garage, and pool house—totals 8,119 square feet and boasts an open-concept floor plan for breezy everyday living and entertaining. “All about warm minimalism, the house has that feel of casual sophistication we love,” Ward wrote in a blog post. “While most of the rooms are light and bright with elements like white oak wood beams and white walls, I have a soft spot for the bar area. Its sultry, dark and moody color palette is unexpected, but balanced by walls of windows that embrace nature and tranquility with ease.”
Outside, there is a kitchen complete with a pizza oven, a swimming pool, and a gut-renovated pool house with indoor and outdoor showers. Above the garage, there’s a new studio apartment with an additional bathroom. Oh, and the 1997 Ferrari 355 Spyder in the driveway? It’s not included in the sale, but name your price and a deal could just be negotiated.
Providing a great lifestyle as well, the 1.26-acre property on Willow Street is just a stone’s throw away from Long Island Sound and walkable to downtown Southport. Interested? Libby McKinney Tritschler of On the Harbor Real Estate holds the elegant and fresh Connecticut listing.
