About this home

Situated on over two acres on one of New Canaan's most coveted cul-de-sacs, this five-bedroom Colonial offers gracious living in a serene west side setting. The home's thoughtful layout provides both formal and casual spaces for daily life & entertaining. The main level features a generous living room with fireplace, formal dining room, and private study. The heart of the home is an expansive step down 27-foot family room with soaring ceilings, skylights, fireplace, built-ins, and French doors leading out to the flagstone patio, flowering gardens, and in-ground pool and spa. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a spa-like bath w whirlpool tub, while four additional well-proportioned bedrooms and two additional baths offer flexible space for family and guests. Professionally landscaped grounds designed for outdoor enjoyment, level lawn areas, and mature trees provide natural privacy. An attached 2-car garage offers exceptional storage and convenience, and an additional freestanding 2 car garage with stairs to an enormous floored upper level opens endless possibilities. Located minutes from New Canaan's village center, this tranquil setting combines privacy with the ease of town amenities.
