SALT ACRES OCEAN ESTATE

Situated on a private peninsula at the southeastern tip of Connecticut, across from Watch Hill Rhode Island, this 11.25 acre ocean estate is a Garden Club of America oft-featured showplace (see link to "Articles" below), a sublime park of seclusion and tranquility.

The 1856 Victorian main mansion is complemented with two additional, detached family/guest houses.

The compound has a Lord & Burnham gas-heated greenhouse, two three-bay garages and worksheds.

There is an all-weather sunken tennis court spectacularly located above the sea, a 60-foot heated swimming pool with bluestone surround, an upper goldfish pond and a lower winter skating pond with Giverney bridge adjacent to the secret garden and two sandy beaches.

Jutting far out into Little Narragansett Bay is a private 500-foot stone breakwater pier. There are two moorings and a floating dock attached to a permanent jetty.

Salt Acres Ocean Estate is located on a virtual-island (Edwards Point) affording the utmost in security and privacy, yet is within a ten minute walk across its own quarter-mile causeway to historic Stonington Borough, widely regarded as one of New England's loveliest villages and recently published a number-one favorite place to retire in Connecticut.

The Compound's seclusion is protected by 14.6 acres of additional conservation lands. The Edwards Point private peninsula, including Salt Acres Ocean Estate, comprises 33.2 acres (which may be acquired in its entirety).
