Greenwich Bay embraces the north shore, the beach, in a special community called Nausauket. The neighborhood enjoys its name from the Native American word meaning: "At the neck of land; land between rivers" which perfectly captures its heart. 478 Nausauket is a bungalow residence, involving 1500 sq. ft. above grade living, and an additional 1200 sq. ft. finished lower level. Originally constructed in the late 1800, this home has been upgraded and improved to create the wonderful balance of respect for the past, a celebration of the present, and a preparation for the future. Three houses from the beach, this home knows where it is. The views are awesome & water access is easy. The floor plan is open with a large living room w/ high ceilings. There are three bedrooms and a full bath on the main level. The kitchen is a great combination of function & convenience with a wall of windows to the east, the morning light. Dining area is generous. Both bathroom have been updated. There is a loft above the main living room; it enjoys a tree house feeling. The lower level has a large recreation area with wet bar, exercise room, full bath and another potential sleeping area. Storage is impressive. The house has a recent Buderus boiler and central air conditioning. It enjoys municipal water and sewers. What is note worthy about this home is its sense of place & time. At the water's edge, with a private back yard, and a great deck overlooking the bay. Do not miss this one.
