SOUTHPORT COUNTRY HOUSE – Overlooking pastoral lawns and paddocks with sweeping views of Long Island Sound, this wonderful residence is enviably positioned at the highest point in Southport, atop Mill Hill. The 5000+ square foot, architecturally significant and very elegant, turn-of-the-20th century, 12 room, 6 Bedroom, stone country house with slate roof, embraces a genteel bygone era while remaining current with every amenity and convenience of today’s engaging lifestyle. Classical columns grace the inviting porte cochere, leading to generously proportioned, sunlit interiors highlighted by diamond paned windows, original quarter sawn oak flooring and six-paneled doors, handcrafted moldings, coffers, and stone-work, opening onto an idyllic and expansive, covered porch. Beautifully sited on an exceptional 3-acre property, exterior features include a large and deep, heated in-ground pool with “cool deck” terrace, bucolic pastures, a very versatile horse barn with full hay loft, a charming chicken coop, and a whole house generator. Within walking distance of Southport Village and train service to and from New York City, this is truly a very special residence in a wonderful location. First Floor: Entrance Hall with hardwood flooring, Dutch door and guest closet. Formal Dining Room with hardwood flooring, coffered ceiling, custom cabinetry, pass-thru from Kitchen, access to open Porch, and pocket doors to Living Room.
