http://www.GailPetersenBell.com - This spectacular oceanfront property sits dramatically at the end of “The Point”, an exclusive enclave off Jerusalem Road on the South Shore’s “Gold Coast”.
Over 200 feet of ocean frontage provides unobstructed and unparalleled 180+ degree views of the Atlantic and the ever-changing drama of the sea.
Designed by noted local architect Jane Hewitson and completed in 2003, the exterior of this shingle style home harkens back to the days of when grand summer estates dotted the coastline; however, the sun-filled 6,000+ square foot interior is thoroughly modern with an open floor plan that maximizes water views from every room.
Take the stone steps down to the water to explore tide pools; fish, swim or launch your kayak; even set out a couple of traps to catch lobsters for a clam bake. And after a long day of ‘coastal living’, relax on your Adirondack chair and just take in the sound of the waves and spectacular vistas. So many opportunities await you in your backyard.
No detail has been overlooked in the design and construction of this magnificent home. As you enter the front door into the soaring 2 story foyer your eyes are immediately drawn toward the ocean and its endless horizon.
(From foyer): The gleaming Santos Mahogany hardwood floors found here continue throughout the 1st and 2nd floors.
Flanked by fireplaces, the spacious Great Room contains many custom built-ins and a detailed coffered ceiling. From here, access the wrap-around mahogany deck; it’s a perfect place for entertaining, or just sit back and be drawn in by the famous 1-4-3 beacon of Minot’s Light.
The gourmet kitchen is equipped with every amenity to satisfy even the most discerning chef. Abundant custom cabinetry by Wood-Mode, a 6 burner gas stove with grill, and a large granite island with prep sink are just a few of the many features of this ‘dream’ kitchen. And washing dishes magically transforms from a chore to a pleasure as you overlook the beach and ocean. The dining area and sun room continue the custom millwork theme and provide stunning views from every vantage point.
(From kitchen): The adjacent walk-in pantry, laundry room and beadboard paneled mudroom lead to the garage outfitted w/ a GarageTek organization system (From kitchen): a pocket door leads to the formal dining room complete w/ a wood burning fireplace and cozy architectural nooks.
Wake up surrounded by the ocean and witness breathtaking sunrises from the 1st floor master bedroom suite complete w/ fireplace, built-in vanity, 2 walk-in closets, radiant heated bathroom floor, and a spa tub from which one is afforded endless water views.
As you step into the library on the 2nd floor you’ll be entranced by both the ocean and Boston skyline views. Take a book from the custom cherry cabinetry and either relax in front of the fireplace or read out on the balcony. When more serious work beckons, take a seat at the large built-in desk; sitting here makes one feel as if he/she is at the helm of a luxury ocean liner.
Three more bedrooms and 2 full baths, all w/ amazing ocean views, and a second laundry room complete the 2nd floor.
The walk-up attic offers tremendous opportunities for expansion; one can easily picture him/herself here relaxing while looking out at the beach and sea from the beautiful half-moon window.
The spectacular walk-out lower level is an entertainer's dream.
On frigid winter’s nights the in-slab radiant heat provides the perfect amount of warmth; and add to the ambience by lighting a fire in the recreation room’s large fieldstone fireplace.
Play pool or poker in the adjacent game room or sit at the amazing bar (complete w/ full kitchen) for a drink or two.
And if you’re still not completely entertained, open the double doors and watch a movie or sporting event in the state-of-the-art home theater featuring stadium seating, a 110 inch screen, a 1080p HD front projector and a 7.2 surround sound system.
This amazing technology continues with the 12 zone house audio system, all controlled by 5 in-wall Crestron touch panels.
There is also a large guest room with a full bath that can double as an exercise room with views that will inspire you to achieve your fitness peak!
A climate-controlled wine room capable of storing over 650 bottles and a mechanical room that houses a German made Viessmann high efficiency boiler system, 300amp electrical system, water purifying and conditioning system, and alarm, irrigation and generator systems complete the space on this amazing lower level.
“Point of View” is a truly magnificent estate situated on one of the best oceanfront sites on the Eastern Seaboard in the charming Village of Cohasset, only minutes from the commuter train and ferry to Boston.
To live here is to feel as though you’re on vacation year round.
