Tucked along a tranquil lane, mere steps from the soft sands of Westport's coveted Compo Beach, 19 Roosevelt Road is coastal living at its most refined. This picture-perfect residence of four bedrooms and three and a half baths pairs timeless elegance with effortless comfort. It was reimagined from the studs up in 2019 and is fully FEMA-compliant, with two light-filled levels and every modern convenience. On the main level, a gracious living room sets the tone, framed by custom built-in bookcases and warmed by a gas fireplace. The chef's kitchen is the heart of the home. It has a generous center island, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Wolf gas range and a dedicated wine refrigerator. Beyond it, a sun-drenched dining area flows into a step-down family room wrapped in windows, opening directly to the patio for seamless indoor-outdoor living. A private den or home office and an elegant powder room complete the floor. Upstairs are four bedrooms. The serene primary suite has its own balcony overlooking the professionally designed grounds. Three additional bedrooms of generous proportion share two beautifully appointed baths. Outside, lush gardens unfold around two stone patios, an enchanting setting for alfresco dining and summer entertaining. The home also includes a whole-house generator, a security system and irrigation. A new roof (2019), natural gas, city water and sewer complete the picture. An exceptional offering moments from the shore, ready to be enjoyed in every season.
Compo-Owenoke Historic District, located between Compo Beach and the Saugatuck River, is a coastal and historic Westport neighborhood with shingle-style architecture and salt-air marsh views. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Compo Road South near the Compo Beach entrance, where beach traffic, bike racks, and seasonal snack-stand energy set the tone. Landmark homes and winding lanes frame a shoreline lifestyle tied to dunes, tidal inlets, and long water views. The Westport Country Playhouse and the Westport Museum for History & Culture serve as cultural anchors beyond the beach scene. Compo Beach and Longshore Club Park shape daily rhythms with sand, courts, and waterfront paths. Downtown Westport’s independent dining and shops sit a short drive inland for a change of pace.
