June is here and so begins the time of year when buyers in Connecticut zero in on having a pool or being on the water. After all, there’s nothing like a splashy New England summer. For someone with deep pockets who wants a Greenwich home where water is the star, a modern estate designed by Joeb Moore & Partners has come to market priced at $27.95 million.
Starting on the one-acre grounds, this elite Greenwich property boasts 300-plus feet of private waterfront, including a deep-water pier and a stone boat house that’s built alongside the chic pool. Closer to the house, there’s a covered terrace for dining and another one with a gas fire feature. Step inside the 13,500-square-foot home to gawk at the sculptural floating staircase in the front-to-back entry hall.
Beyond that show-stopping design moment, there’s a marble-clad kitchen with a butler’s pantry, two separate office spaces, and a total of eight bedrooms and 12 bathrooms, including a primary suite built with a dressing room, sitting area, and walls of glass—partially frosted—in the bathroom so you can sit in the tub and take in the views.
With water in sight wherever you are, this is a luxe summer sanctuary but also makes jaunting into New York City easy versus other beautiful yet remote New England locations like Nantucket or Newport, Rhode Island. Ellen Mosher and Amanda Miller of Houlihan Lawrence holds the listing.
