Gracious Living in Saconessett Hills--Originally the residence of Joseph and Josephine Lilly, this Royal Barry Wills five bedroom home has the elegance one expects of a Wills design and its location in secluded Saconessett Hills means outdoor living is superb. Mature trees and plantings on its estate-like grounds, along with a brick patio, shuffleboard court and swimming pool offer an ambiance for entertaining or relaxing. Inside, the charming living space features a handsome foyer with circular staircase, built-in bookcases and cabinets, coaching inn-styled family room, butternut-paneled library, beamed ceilings, six fireplaces and hardwood floors. In addition to the spaciousness of the main living spaces, there is a generous finished lower level and cozy suite over the four-car garage for a nanny or guests. In addition, this home is close to a private sandy beach and access to the Shining Sea Bike Path.
