DIRECT WATERFRONT - MERWIN POINT, WOODMONT. Located right on Merwin Point with sweeping, unobstructed views of Long Island Sound to the east, south, and west, this majestic 4,700 sq. ft. waterfront home offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Built circa 1910 and originally known as the Blakeslee Cottage, named after the original owner/builder, this stately residence sits in the heart of the historic Borough of Woodmont-just steps from the water and a short drive to New Haven and Yale University. This rare offering includes a private half-acre (Merwin Point) with a lawn, rock and seagrass peninsula across the street. Inside, the main level features a gracious living room with a grand fireplace opening to a spacious waterside porch. A second fireplace warms the adjacent family room, located next to a first-floor bedroom and full bath. The main level also includes a second bedroom with bath, a formal dining room, family room and kitchen. Upstairs, you'll find four additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a waterside deck with panoramic views. The finished lower level adds versatile bonus space, complete with a rec room, built-in bar, belly stove, and ample storage. Outdoors, entertaining is effortless with parking for up to 11 cars: a stamped concrete driveway, a three-car garage (center bay wide enough for a boat) with driveway, semicircular front drive, and a third private driveway on the east side of the home.
