While there are hundreds of islands off the coast of Connecticut, the 1.1-acre island is just one of a handful of private islands off the coast of Greenwich, making it a rare opportunity for a buyer hoping to snag a one-of-a-kind multi-generational property. Christina Ricci Has Hung a $2.2 Million Price Tag on Her Former Los Angeles Home, the property is accessed via a bridge and a lengthy driveway that leads you to the island’s two homes and boat house.
“The previous owner used it as a multi-generational family compound, and it was in the same family for more than four decades,” says listing agent Brett Smith of Brown Harris Stevens. “It has unparalleled views of the ocean and the shores of Long Island and offers island living, but is just 40 minutes from Manhattan.”The residence has bright and airy interiors and exceptional water views from nearly every room, whether you’re in the formal dining room, the bedrooms and bathrooms, or the kitchen.
Located at 38 Game Cock Road is the 3,238-square-foot guest house, which was built in 1985. Set atop a five-car garage with additional storage, it’s designed with three en suite bedrooms, several balconies and terraces, and an outdoor hot tub. In addition to the residences, there’s a lovely boat house, a climate-controlled glamping area, a private beach, and formal gardens. The boat house, built in 1940, is ideal as a reprieve from the sun, and it has a games table, cathedral ceilings, and a kitchen. There’s even an outdoor covered clambake picnic area. The glamping “tent” is a two-person, tent-shaped structure that has A/C for hot summer nights and adds a bit of trendy novelty to the island.
While the property is usable year-round, during the summer it feels like a mini Nantucket or Martha’s Vineyard, with easy access to charming eateries and shops all while putting you in the heart of Connecticut’s vibrant coastal boating culture.Christina Ricci Has Hung a $2.2 Million Price Tag on Her Former Los Angeles HomeArchitect James N.
