Discover the Glass House. An architectural marvel on Fishers Island, designed by Tom Phifer to blend seamlessly with its lush surroundings. This steel-and-glass home, with unobstructed views of Fishers Island Sound, stands on the site of a former colonial home. The garden, designed by Morgan Wheelock and enhanced by Thomas Armstrong, features vibrant Japanese irises and 150,000 daffodils. Phifer's design emphasizes transparency, allowing the house to blend into the landscape. The home's steel frame complements the maritime blues and grays of the Sound. A water feature flows through the house, enhancing the connection between the structure and the garden. The primary bedroom, dappled with light, offers views of the meticulously manicured garden. Inside, the house is a masterpiece of minimalism, with walls that don't touch the exterior, creating uninterrupted views. The exterior canopy of aluminum tubes blocks direct sunlight, ensuring comfort and beautiful soft light. The interior features six skylights and minimal doors, emphasizing the peaceful expanse of the space. This property, a sanctuary of art, architecture, and nature, offers a serene retreat on exclusive Fishers Island, accessible only by ferry, boat, or plane. Experience unparalleled living in this harmonious blend of design and natural beauty.
