TOP 10 THINGS WE'LL MISS ABOUT LIFE ON PROSPECT ROAD





                                          1.   Being in a "Cape Cod" like community without the 8, hour round trip
                                        drive every weekend. Watching the Sun set into the water in the summertime
                                       with clouds painting the sky.  Shore front, al fresco, dining with guests on the
                                      bluestone patio. Seeing the water change colors with the changing weather,
                                     Moonlight shimmering on the water during a clear night with a full moon.


                                   2.   Unobstructed views of sailboat races and the Port Jefferson Ferry crisscrossing
                                   several times a day. Seagulls in the Summer and hundreds of ducks in the Winter
                                  bobbing on the water. Watching the fireworks up and down the Long Island shoreline
                                  across the sound on the 4th of July.


                                  3.   Private Stratford Point Light enclave bordered by the Connecticut Audubon
                                  Society Wildlife Sanctuary.  The family of Great Egrets that return every Summer and
                                  reside just off shore.



                                   4.   Walking down the seawall access steps to our 150, feet of private waterfront,
                                   picking up shells, sea glass and driftwood with our grandchildren, strolling out on
                                    the sandbar over 1,000, feet off shore and enjoying the panoramic views of the
                                    lighthouse without getting into a boat.



                                     5.   Walking to the private (Lordship Residents Only) Russian Beach and then on to
                                     Marnick's for an outdoor Summer cocktail or waterfront dining.  Biking along the
                                     shoreline on flat streets with little traffic.



                                      6.   Opening the sliders for whole house ventilation and direct kitchen access to
                                      the oversized bluestone, entertainment patio.  Turning on the 600, watt, whole
                                      yard, spot light for Summer evening backyard, lawn games.


                                     7.   Returning home after a long trip and loading all of the luggage into the
                                     elevator for easy delivery to the second floor.



                                    8.   Sitting on the private Master Suite, waterside, second floor, balcony, for sunsets,
                                   using the Game Room wet bar as an upstairs entertainment center.


                                9.   Easy access to Metro North trains to Grand Central at the Stratford Center train
                               station.  Always a seat on the train.



                          10.   Lounging on the shaded patio under the cover of Sunsetter awnings while the sun
                        worshipers get to tan from the reflection of the glistening water.
