About This Home
Set on a protected cove that never goes to mud flats even at low tide, 3 Coves End Road started as a Colonial built in 1912, now completely reimagined as a stunning light-filled contemporary home on a quiet no-outlet street. Long water views and abundant sunlight from every side define the house, with custom French doors opening to multiple decks. The custom kitchen is built for serious cooking and entertaining: wood beams, three sinks including one in the island, Wolf 6-burner cooktop, two Wolf convection wall ovens, two Miele dishwashers and two Sub-Zero refrigerators, plus an oversized mudroom and a Butler's Pantry w/ a 100+ bottle Sub-Zero wine cooler. Formal dining room, study/office w/ French doors, four fireplaces, 9.5 ft first-floor ceilings and new wide-board oak floors. Five bedrooms, each w/ its own bath, and all bedrooms enjoy spectacular water views. The primary suite offers a sitting room w/ fireplace, a wall of windows, a private balcony, two full baths and a large walk-in closet. Professionally landscaped grounds, new stone driveway, kayak/canoe launch dock, 3-car detached garage w/ EV charger, lifetime zinc roof on house and garage, unseen solar panels and a full-house generator. A rare waterfront offering in the historic Tokeneke Park that pairs historic character w/ modern living, within an hour from Manhattan.
