Mianus River Waterfront Delight Come be awed by the 180 degree water views of the Mianus River from this delightful gut renovation on the largest Cary Rd. water frontage lot. Watch the seasons pass as the Mianus river changes from perfect morning mists to sparkling ice crystals in winter to the dazzling summer water. Designed by architect Susan Lockwood in a unique Cottage style, the house is compact but spacious, designed for effortless entertaining and comfortable living. It features three bedrooms, all ensuite, one on each level for abundant privacy. The foyer leads into a cathedral-ceilinged living room with wood fireplace with a large custom mantle and Absolut black granite surround. Sonos system is found on the main and lower floor. The living room flows past custom built-ins into a cook's kitchen with Themador appliances. At its center is an oversized green granite countertop island housing a deep sink and dishwasher. Shaker style cabinets provide abundant pull-out storage drawers throughout. From the family room adjacent to the kitchen one can go down a teak deck to your private bluestone terrace to enjoy summer barbeques and entertaining while watching the mesmerizing movement of the Mianus. The primary bedroom on the 2nd level offers a panoramic view of the river. It features a cathedral ceiling, walk-in-closet and a large bath with a frameless shower enclosure, linen closet and a white marble floor with blue mosaic inlay. The lower-level family room has extra space for a home office and media area and a reading/sitting area. The ground floor bedroom has a French door to the terrace and features a mosaic marble bathroom with tub and hand shower. Finally, come and be amazed at the bird life that includes heron, egrets, cormorants and even the occasional eagle. Launch a kayak from your dock. This is an outstanding Greenwich offering.
