Description

From the street, one sees a c.1859 period antique cottage with its shingled facade and its signature red door, a nod towards Lyme's heritage. It was built when Joseph Trumbull was elected CT governor, which was amid the CA gold rush. Yet like a magician on stage revealing his feat, the water's side is an architect's vision that transforms the home into a light-filled, modern retreat where history and design meet in perfect balance. The rear elevation soars with glass and angles, framing Hamburg Cove as if it were a living painting. Inside, the design tells its own story. Vaulted ceilings flood the living areas with natural light. Custom cabinetry mirrors the motif of panes and squares that repeat throughout, blending architecture and craftsmanship in subtle, intentional ways. The kitchen is both efficient and stylish, featuring butcher block counters, innovative storage solutions, and contemporary fixtures. Living and dining spaces open to the outdoors, creating a seamless connection to patios, gardens, and the water beyond. Upstairs, every room is oriented to maximize views and comfort, proving that compact square footage can still live large when the design is right. Step outside, and the lifestyle becomes the headline! Landscaped terraces, stone walls, and multiple seating nooks invite relaxation and entertaining. A private dock brings Hamburg Cove to your doorstep!, Known among sailors as one of New England's premier "hurricane holes, " Hamburg Cove offers sheltered waters, natural beauty, and direct access to open water.. It's a setting that combines security for boaters with serenity for those who simply love the water. The home is situated where the Eight Mile River meets the beginning of the Cove, just north of the marina. Beyond the cove, the advantages of the Lower Connecticut River Valley complete the package. Gillette Castle offers hikes and sweeping views, while Selden Neck State Park provides boat-in trails and wilderness camping. Essex Village and its steam train deliver New England charm. Old Lyme anchors the region's art colony, featuring the Florence Griswold Museum. It's more than a residence - it's a carefully balanced performance of antique authenticity, architectural creativity, and waterfront living. A rare opportunity for buyers who appreciate history but expect design, lifestyle, and location to work in harmony.Show Description
