Private Residence, Wingaersheek

Perched on a ¾-acre beachfront lot along Ipswich Bay, this vacation home is designed to celebrate coastal living while respecting the natural dune environment. The landscape blends simplicity, elegance, and low-maintenance design, creating seamless connections between the house, outdoor spaces, and the beach. Native plantings, naturalistic paths, and subtle screening enhance privacy and views, while outdoor amenities like patios, decks, and a fire pit invite relaxation and gatherings.

Parking and drive areas are thoughtfully integrated with dune-friendly plantings, maintaining the informal seaside character of the property. Every element is designed to harmonize with the surrounding landscape, preserving the beauty of Ipswich Bay while creating a welcoming, functional, and serene retreat.
