A unique opportunity to curate a historic property in Nassau Point awaits you. Originally owned by John Carrington, who was the owner of Nassau Point, The Carrington House, affectionately known as "Crestwood," is a residence from the 1800s that showcases its historical significance, architectural details, and craftsmanship. Originally constructed as a summer home at the highest elevation of The Point, this elegant house sits on 1.2 acres and features spacious rooms, high ceilings, intricate hand-carved moldings, and oversized windows. Upon arrival, you are greeted by a screened-in front porch that leads to a gracious foyer. French glass doors open to a stately library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, while a wood-burning fireplace serves as the focal point in the spacious living room.

The kitchen, highlighted by painted tiles, includes a walk-in pantry, a Garland stove, and a casual dining area with a bay window. It also has a side entrance that features a mudroom and additional storage. The first-floor primary ensuite boasts vaulted ceilings and has a separate entrance through the breezeway off the library. Three additional bedrooms are located on the second floor, along with an office space and a full bathroom. The finished attic features three distinct rooms with wide plank wood floors and stenciled walls, providing versatile space that could be repurposed as a recreation room, art studio, gym, wellness area, or extra storage.
