From the agent: "This is a rare opportunity to own world-renowned landscape architect Edwina von Gal’s own waterfront oasis with panoramic views of Accabonac Harbor that have inspired artists for generations. This two-parcel private sanctuary is down the street from the Pollock-Krasner House on the same protected estuary. The hidden gem is revealed when a winding lane past woodland, meadows and gardens and a charming cottage opens onto the iconic modernist house and harbor beyond. The private property is itself a work of art, portraying a four-season romance with the landscape, capturing the undisturbed beauty from the rising sun to the expansive ever-changing sunsets over a boardwalk to the harbor."
Hamilton Smith, a partner of Marcel Breuer, designed this 1974 cabin to look as if it is floating above water.
