Showcasing a six-year-old home with a captivating hilltop view of Chester Basin, located on 1.56 acres with 156 feet of oceanfront. This Chester Builders custom design/build, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom layout has oodles of room (2384 square feet of living space plus another 600 square foot two bay garage).
Sunsets and evening soirees were in mind with the south and west facing composite decks and landscaped stone fire pit. Enjoy the private beach down by your private wharf/floating docks. From the end of the wharf, you can see right down the bay to the open ocean.
Entering this home, the soaring vaulted ceiling accentuates the panoramic view and sunlight filtering through the expansive windows. A propane fireplace in the living room, and ducted heating and cooling will keep you comfortable. The reclaimed wood for the Kitchen Island, beam and mantelpiece are just some of the featured material details. An open concept dining/kitchen area with stainless steel appliances and a farm style sink will make entertaining a joy. The primary suite with a five-piece ensuite and walk in closet is conveniently located on the main level. An additional powder room, laundry facility and utility room round off the main level.
Several second-floor architectural features make this home really shine; an interior hallway overlooking the main level and a south facing bedroom balcony; perfect for a morning coffee. Two bedrooms situated end to end, and a four-piece bathroom ensure privacy and comfort.
That’s not all though! The newly constructed detached two bay heated garage features a 300 square foot loft and a two-piece bathroom. It is wired with an EV charger. Also included is a whole house Generac generator, irrigation system that uses rainwater collection, deep water anchorage mooring just off the wharf, electrical line running to the wharf and second lower parking pad for a boat.
The Skipper Hill Homeowners Association covers common area road maintenance, snow removal, and landscape maintenance. The wharf is available for all homeowners and there is one ‘guest’ slip for general use.
A five-minute drive into Chester, come celebrate life in the village where everything is possible, including fine art at The Captain’s House Gallery, theatre at the Chester Playhouse, dockside seafood chowder at the Rope Loft, lattes at the Kiwi Café, fine dining at the Sunroom, sailing at the Chester Yacht Club, tall tales at the Focsle Tavern and sports at the Chester Tennis & Golf Clubs.
