Gorgeous panoramic views of the water, a privileged "living shoreline" and surrounding nature and gardens blur the line between inside and out. A calm water sailing and boating haven; unobstructed evening star-gazing; and crab, fish and oysters living off your dock let you leave "the real" world behind when you arrive. Local restaurants, groceries and specialty markets and pickle-ball courts are minutes away on the mainland over the island's 24-hour swing-bridge. Famed Richmond architect, Charles Aquino, designed the house and his wife and collaborator Anna Aquino the fabulous gardens.
