About this home

Rare Pondside Retreat: Life here changes beautifully with the seasons. In summer, the home comes alive through effortless indoor-outdoor living - the kitchen becomes the heart of it all, with wide-open sliding doors connecting seamlessly to the patio, pool, and lawn beyond. While dinner is prepared and conversations flow, others swim, lounge in the sun, dine outdoors, or play games on the grass overlooking the tranquil pond. The family room, perfectly positioned beside the kitchen, keeps everyone connected while still allowing space to unwind. Downstairs, the expansive lower level becomes its own destination - movie nights, celebrations, sleepovers, game nights, or a private retreat. As the seasons turn, the home transforms into something equally special. The pond becomes a peaceful frozen landscape, creating a breathtaking backdrop from the dining room just off the kitchen, where gatherings naturally flow into the elegant formal living room for vibrant conversations. The layout offers warmth and intimacy without ever feeling limiting - cozy in atmosphere, yet expansive in possibility. Two ensuite bedrooms on the main level provide flexibility for in-laws, guests, or tucked-away office spaces that offer privacy without separation. Every space in the home feels intentional, balancing togetherness with personal retreat, creating a home that adapts effortlessly to the rhythms of family life.

Recent comparable sales

The 5 closest recent sales to this home, nearest match first — same building where possible, then the surrounding streets, widening only when there is nothing closer. These are recorded sale prices from the MLS, not estimates. No automated valuation is shown, because what a home is worth depends on condition, layout and timing that a formula cannot see — call John at 203·883·3399 to read them properly against this home.

5 comparable sales — median $1,000,000, ranging $875,000 to $1,230,000.
