Property Description
Rare mid-century modern, exquisitely restored to honor its architectural pedigree and superb waterfront location on private headland facing the Atlantic Ocean. Originally designed by Carl Koch, student of Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius and a pioneer in Scandinavian-inspired construction, the home has been stunningly reimagined to showcase iconic elements—dramatic butterfly roof, cedar and stucco façade with exposed fir beams, massive granite fireplaces—now married to polished concrete floors with radiant heat, walls of floor-to-ceiling windows, and state-of-the-art systems, enabling maximum enjoyment of the property's magnificent setting. Interior spaces—light and luxurious with high ceilings, clean custom-built cabinets, sleek industrial appliances—flow seamlessly out to bluestone patios with outdoor living room, rolling green lawns, and show-stopping viewing deck with path to private shore with flat rocks perfect for surfcasting or sunbathing. Peerless and perfect.
