About this property
Modern Waterfront Home <br>steps from the water in quiet beachside neighborhood
Newly built (2012) modern 3 bedroom, 2 bath house in the residential Saugatuck Shores section of Westport. Situated on quiet street, 3 houses from the water. Master bedroom w/queen and bathroom plus 2 add'l bedrooms on ground floor. Wide open loft like 2nd floor with kitchen, dining area and cozy living room. European bathroom with sink, toilet & shower also on 2nd floor. Roof deck with table, umbrella, grill & great views of the water and passing boats. Amazing spot for a full moon! Cable TV w/VCR, wireless internet and stereo. Washer & dryer on ground floor. Outdoor shower in backyard. Lovely garden with hydrangeas & butterfly bush. Central AC but screened windows when you want to smell the salt air.
You can swim, sail or fish. There are a few very small private beaches within walking distance. Two large public beaches, with full facilities, are 10 and 15 minutes away. The house is located in Saugatuck Shores, which is almost entirely surrounded by water and is ideal for sailing, walking and biking. You can rent a boat or kayak at Longshore Marina and leave it on our beach.
Westport has a great array of restaurants & bars should you want to step into town. Norwalk which is 10 minutes away also has many restaurants and bars to choose from. Shopping choices, which are too numerous to list, are minutes away: Whole Foods, Costco, Trader Joe's, CVS, etc.
Metro North RR is 5 minutes away.

About the host
Hosted by Rob Jackson
Howdy Folks,
Born in Pittsburgh. Grew up in Pittsburgh, Wilmington, DE & Douglaston, NY. I work in TV commercials and have traveled the world experiencing all it entails. Love to travel and use VRBO & other sites on many occasions myself. I've got two kids who are in college ($$ yikes) and a great family.

Why they chose this property
My house sits in a small beach community 1.15 hrs by train or car from Manhattan. It's surrounded by the Saugatuck river (more a bay where I am actually) and LI Sound on the other side. Great blue herons, swans, red tail hawks, snowy egrets and my favorites ospreys, who fish in front of the house, are abundant. Walks along the beach, swim in the sound, eat at any one of the great restaurants in Westport or hop on Metro North to the city in 70 minutes.
What makes this property unique
I love my home because it's filled with sun, has a rooftop deck overlooking the water and is in a quiet water front community. Good neighbors and proximity to stores, restaurants and my boat. The outdoor shower is my favorite way to clean up, whether it's in the morning, after work or under the full moon - can't be beat!!
