About the host
Hosted by Jeff Giannone
I bought this property in 2014 and did a ground up renovation. The location is amazing situated on Sasco Creek across the street from the beautiful Southport beach on the Westport line.
Why they chose this property
Walk to the beach surrounded by multi-million dollar estates. Close to everything yet quiet and private.
What makes this property unique
Sea breezes, bike or walk to beach, Southport village will make you feel like you are far from Fairfield County, in a good way.
