One of the original Actors Colony Homes, 23 Morey Lane is an iconic 'Sconset Shingle Style summer home.  Built by the theatre & silent movie star Robert Hilliard, "Wide Awake" hosted the New York theatre crowd in the 1920s and was completely renovated and restored in 2002 by Bentley & Churchill Architects.  The house and new guest cottage are in perfect harmony to the original architecture.  Rich in history and character, the house is a treasure of summer house charm with beautiful gardens on a private 3/4 acre lot with 2nd floor ocean views.
