This grand shingle style home was designed by Roger Bartels.Architect Roger Bartels designed a grand Shingle Style home in the Westport enclave called Saugatuck Shores that’s now listed for $3,998,000. The .53-acre property is sited directly on Bermuda Lagoon and features a pool, a terrace with a built-in barbeque, and a deep-water dock. Walls of glass throughout the 4,540-square-foot interiors take in expansive Long Island Sound views, from the living room with its stunning river-stone hearth to the master suite, built into a turret, featuring a gas fireplace and private balcony. But the home’s most dramatic feature is the cupola centered over the main staircase, flooding the three floors with light and capping its shingled rooftops with a dramatic flourish. The home lists with Michelle Genovesi of Michelle&Company Real Estate, William Raveis.

The open kitchen and living room are light-filled and inviting. Plenty of windows and glass doors fill the home with light. A unique bridge looks over the first floor. The pool lies right next to the ocean. The lawn is framed by landscaped gardens.
