About this home
A rare opportunity to live on Topping Lane, a private wooded enclave Rowayton adjacent. Set atop a gentle rise on 1.35 bucolic acres, this gracious stone-and-shingle residence offers five bedrooms and three and one-half baths in a serene, storybook setting defined by privacy, craftsmanship, and natural beauty. A circular drive winds through mature perennial gardens and English-style plantings to a substantial cherry front door, opening into an elegant foyer with wide-plank wood floors. The main level features a formal living room with fireplace, a formal dining room, a cherry-paneled library with fireplace, and a music room that anchors the home with warmth and character. At the heart of the residence is a spectacular kitchen-family room combination, renovated in the 1990s, unified by custom cherry millwork and soaring, chapel-like ceilings-ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The chef's kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with Sub-Zero refrigeration, a commercial walk-in, a 60-inch Viking range, dual convection ovens, two dishwashers, and a convenient dumbwaiter to the garage. French doors open to a vaulted deck overlooking wooded grounds, ravine, and brook beyond. The primary suite occupies a private ground-level position, featuring warm maple finishes and a recently renovated spa-like bath with an oversized shower, soaking tub, and expansive alabaster countertops. A truly special offering in one of Norwalk's most coveted locations!

Public record
From the Norwalk assessor's public property record. These figures describe the property as the town has it on file and can differ from the listing — a finished basement or an addition may not be reflected in the assessor's living area.
Recorded sales
Deed transfers on file with the Norwalk land records, newest first. These are recordings rather than MLS sales, so they include transfers that were never listed. Nominal and $0 transfers (estate, trust and family conveyances) are excluded.
