A coveted feature for many Fairfield County buyers, especially in the summertime, is waterfront access. Now there’s an opportunity to snap up a Greenwich residence surrounded by water on every side. That’s because it is, in fact, its own little island. The price tag for Rich Island is, unsurprisingly, not so little and it has hit the market for $7.495 million. That’s still quite a bit less than Rogers Island off Branford, which a hedge funder is hoping to sell for $35 million.
With multiple places where boats can dock and a marina right nearby, the half-acre property seems destined for an avid boater and those with boating friends. Especially since this listing will come with two boats at-the-ready as well. Once on the island, water views abound whether you’re enjoying the plethora of outdoor spaces—including a gazebo along a private rock pathway—or heading straight for the house.
The 2,800-square-feet home holds spaces primed for cozy relaxation, starting with the main living room anchored by a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. A large kitchen and dining room provide a charming setting for dinner parties, but most may want to flock outside for al fresco meals. The three-story home holds six bedrooms and four bathrooms. The primary bedroom has some of the best seats in the house for capturing sunrises and sunsets. And, homeowners needn’t fret for their guests as the other suites have stunning views, too.
Delightfully, you aren’t far from exciting diversions because once you return to the mainland, New York City is less than 45 minutes away. Whether a buyer is an NYC native looking for a summer escape or someone seeking an ultra-private primary residence, those interested can find the listing with Margriet McGowan and Katy Finnegan of Sotheby’s International Realty.
