About this home

This beautiful ranch-style home is nestled in the highly desirable North Stamford neighborhood, on a quiet 1.05-acre lot at the end of a cul-de-sac. With 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, it offers plenty of room for family, guests, or multigenerational living. Highlights include a generously sized living room with a fireplace, a large eating kitchen that opens via sliders to a patio perfect for alfresco dining and entertaining. The master suite is a retreat with a Jacuzzi tub. The lower level is fully finished and includes a full bath and a walk-in cedar closet. The separate in-law/au pair suite features its own entrance, bedroom, bath, and laundry room. Built in 1953 and recently painted, the home also reflects solid updates: the lot is level and lightly wooded, providing privacy, and the location is just minutes to the Merritt Parkway and High Ridge Plaza for convenient shopping and commuting. This is a rare opportunity to own a true North Stamford ranch with generous acreage, space to spread out, and flexibility thanks to the in-law suite. The property is ready to go, don't miss out!
