8 Shore Road
Greenwich, Connecticut

Description:

Snuggle into the charm of Old Greenwich in this 1804 sq. ft cottage built in 1880 with 4 small bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The home sits on .4 of an acre and abuts tidal Tomac Creek. Water views abound and a kayak or small boat can travel out to the Sound at high tide. The property is in an R12 zone and has tidal wetlands that have been marked and because the property is in a flood zone, any additional construction will have to be elevated to comply with flood zone requirements. D'Andrea has done an extensive study of the property that is available for Buyers, builders and Agents to review. The study shows the building envelope within which an approximately 5300 sq foot new home can be built. Or, if a buyer wishes to retain the current home, they can apply for historic status and build out the back of the house into the building envelope and possibly add even more buildable square footage. This is a cozy rare find in Old Greenwich and is one of the last homes still existing from the 1880's.
