About this home

Tucked away at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac characterized by minimal traffic and a genuine sense of community, this classic Cape-style residence offers a rare and sought-after blend of convenience and timeless Riverside charm. Bordered by a lush, protected forest buffer with natural expanse and dense tree canopy, the property provides privacy and an exceptional environment for everyday living, outdoor play, gardening, or simply unwinding. All of which strikes a perfect balance between a secluded neighborhood feel and the practicalities of a well-located home. Inside, the residence features sun filled rooms, flexible living spaces, and a layout that supports both relaxed daily routines and effortless entertaining. Large windows bring in natural light throughout the day, while the surrounding greenery enhances the home's sense of calm and retreat. A notable advantage of this location is its short distance to Binney Park and Tod's Point, providing an easy option for enjoying nearby outdoor recreation whenever desired. Convenience is another hallmark of this address with it's close proximity to neighboring Old Greenwich and Cos Cob. Nearby, local shops, restaurants, library, schools, Metro North train station (3 min) and I-95 also make commuting and weekend errands refreshingly simple. With its quiet setting and prime Riverside address, the property presents an exceptional opportunity in one of Greenwich's most desirable neighborhoods.
