Every home tells a story, and 5 Hemlock Drive’s is one of transformation. Perched high above South Cove with sweeping views across the Connecticut River to Essex Village beyond, this striking post-and-beam Acorn Deck House has been reimagined from top to bottom by its owner, a local architect, with no detail overlooked and no expense spared. Vaulted ceilings, walls of glass and skylights flood the open floor plan with light and water views. The kitchen, outfitted with custom cabinetry and a Wolf range, opens gracefully to the main living space, while a lower-level retreat with a gas fireplace and direct garden access offers guests or extended family a quiet retreat of their own. Every surface, system and finish has been renewed - new roof, siding and insulation, a rebuilt deck with glass railing, all-new bathrooms with custom vanities and Kohler fixtures, white oak floors and a standby, whole house generator - combining the soul of a mid-century modern classic with the comfort of a brand-new custom build. Set on nearly an acre just steps from the Turtle Creek Preserve trailhead and minutes from Essex Village, where the historic Griswold Inn, boutique shopping and marinas along the Connecticut River await, this is a rare opportunity to own a fully reimagined architectural gem in one of New England’s most celebrated small towns. Interstate 95 and rail connections to Boston and New York are close at hand.
