Peaceful Six-Bedroom Traditional on Beach Lane for $17M

Everything about this property is pleasant and easy on the eye. The exterior of the house is traditional and shingled, while the interiors are light and in good taste. Nothing is cavernous or overdone, even though the house is a generous 6100sf. There are two acres of land with a gunite pool, pool house, lush natural plantings, and views of Wainscott Pond (though the property doesn't extend that far, as "pondfront" implies in the listing). We tend to think the asking price is a little high; a couple million lower sounds better, but who knows, maybe someone will fall in love with this gracious property.
