Listing broker remarks

Tucked away, 70 Third Street feels both private and unexpectedly special, where thoughtful details have been purposely placed throughout the grounds and the home itself. Zen like landscaping surrounds this contemporary creating a serene outdoor oasis while offering sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean. An amazing chef's kitchen features windows that open directly onto a sheltered deck. A living room floor to ceiling fireplace and soaring vaulted ceiling opening to a second floor balcony create volume, light, and architectural interest. Encompassing the entire second floor, the primary suite includes a sitting area and private deck for a quiet retreat while two lower level bedrooms enjoy direct access to the peaceful courtyard offering the ever-present connection to nature. Adding to the property's rare waterfront appeal, a private dock offers direct access to the tidal inlet leading to the tranquil "let" portion of the Westport River, making this truly a unique coastal retreat.— Residential Properties Ltd.
