Read the full listing description
Set along 48 feet of direct sandy shoreline on Fairfield Beach, "Witching Waves" is a two-parcel offering that pairs classic coastal character with expansion flexibility. The primary 0.18-acre beachfront lot at 1417 Fairfield Beach Road is complemented by a separate 0.07-acre creek-side parcel at 1418, creating a distinctive ownership opportunity along Long Island Sound. Originally built in 1917, this 1,410-square-foot cottage blends historic charm with everyday comfort. The three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath layout features tile flooring on the main level, wood flooring upstairs, and a wood-burning fireplace that anchors the living space. A split air conditioning system provides seasonal balance. The front porch faces the water, offering uninterrupted shoreline views and direct beach access just steps away. A dedicated grill area supports outdoor entertaining in a natural beachfront setting with no seawall. Off-street parking is located directly in front of the home. Approximately 1 mile to Penfield Beach and about 2 miles to downtown Fairfield and the Fairfield Train Station with Metro-North service, the property combines coastal privacy with convenient access to town amenities. A refined opportunity to secure direct Fairfield Beach frontage with the added benefit of a second parcel at 1418 Fairfield Beach Rd.
