About 284 Water St
Paradise at the End of the Earth is the best way to describe this one-of-a-kind property situated in the heart of NBPT's most exclusive waterside location. Once featured on the pages of Coastal Living Magazine, the wide pine floors, Indian Shutters are among a sprinkling of preserved elements of the original homestead that once encompassed all of Shandel Drive. Now redesigned with vaulted ceilings, chef's kitchen & primary suite w/water views, & a 4-season room to watch the sunrise over Plum Island, and check in daily with the native Swans, Herons, Seals, Otters, Eagles, Ospreys, Terns & Cormorants. Watch the golden sunset over the water and grasslands in every season, and on a beautiful summer day, host parties and Barbecue dinners in a backyard big enough for a live band and hundreds of your closest friends. Walk to town for lunch or dinner, or launch your kayak across the street. 3-bay garage/barn fits 5 cars w/lift, and the attached heated workshop ideal for any pursuit!
