Chocomount Beach House

Expansive Beachfront on Block Island Sound

Fishers Island, New York

Perhaps the premier waterfront location on Fishers Island, this 3.96+/- acre parcel with 322 feet of direct access to the east end of Chocomount Beach includes a delightfully stylish 5 bedroom and 4 bath “Beach House”.  There is a large front yard with a path that leads to the beautiful beach.  This is the quintessential well maintained summer home including wonderful living spaces and an absolutely beautiful and private location. Initially remodeled  in the late 40’s using the former club house of a long forgotten private Chocomount bathing club, the structure has  retained the relaxed open feel that was initially created when it was adapted to private use by the current owners’ family.  The living room/ dining room is full of light with a southern wall of French doors opening to an outside deck and  the large front lawn leading to the beach.  Clerestory windows are also a part of the main room’s design along with a significant oversized stone fireplace.  The master bedroom, dressing room and bath are adjacent to the eastern side of the living room and can also be reached directly from the back terrace. On the west side of the living room a small hallway accesses a twin bedded room and bath. Just beyond is a large sitting room facing south with full bath, that adjoins two sleeping alcoves each containing a single bed, large closet and built-in dressers. The large eat in kitchen, is certainly functional with up to date appliances. Above the kitchen area are two small bedrooms, one with a view of Block Island Sound and the other with delightful tiny screen porch. There is also a full old fashioned bathroom on this floor.   The house has an oversized two car garage attached to the west side of the house and several very practical “changing rooms” and shower off of the east wing.  A very private and generous terrace, ideal for outside entertaining, adjoins the bath house area.   The grounds, designed by the highly regarded west coast landscape designer, Thomas Church, are simple and yet so appropriate for the house and the setting. In addition there is a well sited tennis court and tennis gazebo both in need of rebuilding.  The very tastefully put together house is to be sold mostly furnished with the exception of art works and a few special family pieces.

Offered at $3,000,000 with current taxes of $12,161.
