About 103 Highland Avenue
Perched on an exquisitely-landscaped lot in Short Beach overlooking Long Island Sound is this unique gem, w/ two houses on 1 property. The main home, a charming gingerbread Victorian, has 9 rooms, w/ 4 bedrooms & 2 full baths. The second home has 6 rooms (3 bedrooms & 1-1/2 baths) & offers a variety of possibilities. Not only could it provide a wonderful opportunity as an income-producing rental, but it is also ideal for extended family living or as a home office. The main house is warm and inviting, open and bright, with waterviews and riverviews throughout. The kitchen has solid maple cabinetry, w/ tile flooring and a gas range. Conveniently located off the kitchen is a large pantry & laundry room. The dining room has wide-plank pine flooring & currently extends into a middle room w/ hutches and stained glass windows, whose designs are based on some architectural details of the house. This middle room opens into the large living room w/ Douglas fir flooring & a corner brick wood-burning fireplace, annually maintained, which creates a cozy ambiance in cool weather. In the warmer months, step out onto an expansive wraparound porch w/ exposed rafters & gingerbread trim to relax & enjoy the water views & the beauty of the established perennial gardens where something is in bloom all year round. The first floor also has a small office off the dining room w/ floor-to-ceiling shelving, as well as a full bath leading to an outdoor hot tub and shower.
