273 Seaside Avenue, Westbrook, (West Beach), CT, 06498

Experience the perfect marriage of modern luxury and seaside serenity in this meticulously reimagined beach home. Boasting uninterrupted views of West Beach, this is not your typical coastal cottage-it is a sophisticated retreat designed for those who demand both style and substance. While the structure was substantially rebuilt in 1999, the home has since undergone an extensive series of thoughtful, high-end renovations and design improvements that blend timeless New England charm with sophisticated modern living. The heart of the home is a designer kitchen featuring stunning quartz countertops, a handcrafted Italian, chef-inspired ILVE gas range, premium Cafe appliances, a custom shiplap range hood and a striking hand-fired vertical tile backsplash in calming coastal blue tones. The refined aesthetic continues with newly refinished light oak hardwood floors that flow throughout the open living spaces. A stunning back-to-front white-washed wood burning brick fireplace serves as a striking focal point, warming both the living and dining areas. Perfectly positioned between these two rooms, you will find a dedicated coffee bar with a private prep sink, making it an ideal hub for morning brews or evening entertaining.Upstairs, the primary suite is a true destination, occupying much of the upper floor to maximize panoramic water views. From sunrise to sunset, the home is filled with the soothing rhythm of waves just outside the windows - a rare and remarkably peaceful experience, even among beachfront homes. This sanctuary has soaring cathedral ceilings, and includes a spacious dressing room and exercise area, while a private, light-filled office is tucked into the front corner to capture some of the most spectacular views of the sound. The exterior is as meticulously maintained as the interior, blending classic New England charm with modern infrastructure. Botanical bliss awaits in the front gardens, where cottage fencing and Belgian block pathways frame a lush landscape of heritage roses, hydrangeas, and fragrant creeping thyme. The backyard serves as a private garden oasis, perfectly landscaped for al fresco dining and evening dinner parties under the stars. Designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living, the home transitions beautifully from sun-filled interiors to private garden spaces ideal for summer entertaining just steps from the beach. With a newer roof, treated cedar shingles, charming window boxes, and extensive recent improvements, the home has been meticulously maintained. Completing this rare seaside offering is a detached two-car garage-a coveted find in a beach community-now updated with a built-in EV charger. You aren't just near the water; the beach is quite literally steps from your front door.
