A modern replica of a French XVIIIth century villa, the house of “Bien-assise” holds a fabulous position on the end of a peninsula of Nahant offering 270 degrees of beautiful panoramas over the Atlantic, Nahant and the North shore. The elevation of the home alongside the ocean captures the most of the sparkling sea and lush cliff side views.
With four bedrooms and 3 full and two half-baths the residence offers a wonderful flow with high ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass windows, and French doors that frame the sea.
The sumptuous master bedroom has water views on three sides, a gas fireplace, master bath with steam shower, and custom-built walk-in closet.
A separate space for guests, in-laws, or au pair is located on the ground level and faces the ocean.
A fabulous roof deck with outdoor grill, lounging areas, and 8-person Jacuzzi has 360-degree uninterrupted views of the Atlantic.
The many covered terraces and patios provide the perfect retreat from the sun.
The garden both matches the classic style of the house as well as providing intimate sheltered spaces to enjoy the views and the sound of the waves.
The grounds encompass four levels with a classical staircase, retaining wall, pergolas, landings, fountains, and a tea house at the water’s edge.
Enjoy swimming, fishing for blues and stripers, paddle boarding, wind surfing nearby.
A lifestyle you can truly enjoy only 13 miles from Boston.
