Victorian house on Watch Island listed

June 17, 2011 

Can not you hack your interfering neighbors anymore? Reflect on this Victorian house with ten bedrooms situted on Watch Island, a private island in the Thousand Islands area nearby Clayton, New York. The listing price features $1,950,000.

 

The 6,500-square-foot home was built in 1903 by Walter Jerome Green Jr., a banker and yachtsman. It is placed on 1.3 acres and has all the contemporary amenities, featuring an outsized boathouse and large docking facilities – which one would evidently need. The island is located near the Thousand Islands Bridge.
The home retains its lavish use of wood and many period features, including a claw-footed tub.
Green was the director of the Savage Arms Corp. and president of Utica Investment Co., the Utica City National Bank, and a director of the First National Bank and Trust Company. He was also rear commodore of the Frontenac Yacht Club and had a 75-foot yacht named Verdi, according to the June 6, 1909, New York Times.
