Property Description

Gracious colonial set on 3.74 private acres along a quiet west-side cul-de-sac. This cherished estate setting offers an exceptional blend of privacy, recreation, and convenience, just two miles from town and the train. The private grounds feature a Glengate Gunite pool, cabana with bath, and a barn with stables where the owners once kept horses for riding on nearby Land Trust trails. Offered for the first time in more than 50 years, this center-hall Colonial features six bedrooms, five full and three half baths, with 6,300 square feet of living space, and an additional 800 square feet of finished lower-level space. Thoughtfully renovated and expanded by Judith Larsen designs in 2005, the residence includes a beautifully appointed kitchen, an open family room with vaulted ceilings, lovely breakfast room overlooking grounds and a private in-law suite with its own entrance . Other features are 4 car garage, full house generator, pond views and driveway alert. Beautifully proportioned interiors and multiple gathering spaces make the home equally suited to comfortable everyday living and gracious entertaining. French doors spanning the rear of the residence open directly to the grounds, creating a seamless connection among the home, pool, cabana, and expansive property. A truly rare and treasured offering in one of New Canaan's most desirable west-side settings.
