Designed by John W. Stedman, this $8.5 million gem boasts an unconventional shape and offers breathtaking views of the Long Island Sound. 🏠🏖️
The 6,000-square-foot home has a super unconventional shape, configured as three triangles connected by walkway ramps. Its first owners, Peter and Margaret Luce, commissioned the architect to create something akin to a ship, meaning you’ll find decks that jut out like the prow of a boat, along with plenty of built-in furnishings and skylights that are reminiscent of portholes.
In the years since it was constructed, minor renovations have been made to the kitchen and bathroom. The basement, which used to be an unground fallout shelter, has also been turned into a wine cellar. However, the six-bed, six-bath home is largely in its original state with slate flooring throughout, teak paneling on the walls, and ceilings clad in redwood.
“No matter how many times I would walk around that bend into the living room it always took my breath away,” Daniel told the, recalling what it was like growing up here. “It’s something I never get used to. It literally stops people in their tracks when they walk in.” Oh yeah, did we mention one of those people just so happened to be the Piano Man , Billy Joel? “Out of nowhere he drove up to the house with his band and his wife,” Daniel continued. “That was pretty incredible.” Incredible, indeed.
