About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Tranquil, Secluded, Updated Two-Acre Wellesley Island Waterfront, Drive-To Home

Relax in the relative solitude and prevailing breezes of this magnificent, drive-up, 4-bedroom 2.5-bath home with floating dock in protected water for predictable boating access, safe swimming and water sports. The final approach to this property includes a two-hundred yard forested driveway revealing the renovated, 19th-century farmhouse with large bridge-view deck and screened-in porch. Deer and wild turkey frequently emerge on the expansive lawn. Dramatic views of freighters on their way to and from the Atlantic.

Large queen master suite downstairs opens to deck overlooking Brown’s Bay just off the American Narrows. Original upstairs queen master overlooking the river shares full bath with a third queen and fourth full bedroom. Small bonus room upstairs makes optional office, baby room, or extra sleeping for a teen. Breezy, screened in porch yields a bookworm simultaneous views of the bridge and landscaped lawn and wildlife. Updated kitchen with modern appliances.

We purchased this home in particular because of its prime location on Wellesley Island, its accessibility by car, its majestic views of the River (in particular the bridge and the freighters), and its relative seclusion compared to other properties in the area. We are confident you will enjoy these attributes as well as our guests.
