About this home

Set on over four and a half acres of private, level grounds in one of New Canaan's most sought after locations, this exceptional estate offers a rare combination of scale, privacy, and close to town convenience.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a six burner Wolf gas range, second Wolf oven, Miele dishwasher, Sub Zero refrigerator and freezer, wine cooler, beverage drawers, marble island, and double sinks. Beyond the main residence, the estate continues to impress. A separate antique guest house with full kitchen, 3 bedroom and 1-1/2 bath provides ideal accommodations for extended family or guests. The heated gunite pool and pool house, added in 1991, offer a true retreat setting, complete with a party room, kitchen, bedroom, bath, and sauna for a resort like experience.
