A Greenwich suburb with two country clubs
Country club prestige and an idyllic suburban setting are reasons people move to Greenwich’s Mid-Country East. “This is one of the most elite places to live in Fairfield County,” says Julie Grace Burke, a broker with Compass who has sold several homes in the area. “It has two incredibly well-respected country clubs and several private schools, all within an hour and a half drive from New York City.” Founded in 1892, Greenwich Country Club’s Colonial Revival-style building, racquet complex and swimming pool stretch across Doubling Road. Golf carts drive around Burning Tree Country Club’s 18-hole course, here since 1962. Second Congregational Church’s 217-foot-tall steeple towers over four-lane Putnam Avenue, a thoroughfare in the neighborhood’s southern region with grocery stores and fast-food options. High-end department stores and decades-old restaurants fill the Italianate-style storefronts on Greenwich Avenue, about 4 miles south.

Multi-million-dollar homes built throughout the past century
Custom-built estates sit far back from Mid-Country East’s winding, asphalt roads. “The whole area is zoned for 1-to-2-acre lots, but people have bought up more and more acreage over time, so now you can get a house on 10 or more acres,” Burke says. Ivy grows up thatched-roof English-style manors from the 1920s. Stone walls surround six-bedroom 1950s Colonial Revivals backing up to swimming pools and tennis courts. Wooden docks stretch behind early 2000s shingle-style homes alongside the private Frye Lake. Pink dogwood trees and white hydrangea bushes dot grass lawns in front of 8,000-square-foot Tudor-style dwellings built within the last decade. Houses on 2 acres typically start at $3 million, while homes with more land may cost upwards of $10 million. Two-bedroom condos near Putnam Avenue typically cost between $1 million and $1.5 million.

Golfing, swimming and tennis at Greenwich Country Club or Burning Tree Country Club
With an initiation fee of $125,000, Greenwich Country Club is situated on 165 acres of rolling terrain. “It’s invitation-only, and even then, you’ll still probably be on a waitlist if you’re trying to join,” Burke says. Dark blue lounge chairs and white pergolas surround the swimming pool here. Tennis balls whack against black clay courts at the racquet sports complex, which also has separate paddleball and pickleball courts. Evergreen trees line the 18-hole golf course, featuring numerous water hazards alongside Greenwich Creek. Burning Tree Country Club on Perkins Road has an initiation fee of $85,000. A 3-meter diving board sits over the pool, where synchronized swimming classes and water polo matches are held every summer. Sand bunkers and oak trees dot the 18-hole golf course’s bent grass fairway. Members can eat upscale American fare and enjoy golf course views under the patio’s striped black-and-white awning.
