About This Home

As of June 2023

HIGHEST AND BEST due Tuesday May 2 at 5pm. It's not often that a private-entry, 2 bedroom + 2 bath unit this big comes on the market in desirable Rowayton Woods. This home is situated in the heart of the community close to the tennis courts, heated pool, as well as the pond, walking trails and community gardens. It has been freshly painted and is ready for the next owner! Two large bedrooms and an open living room/dining room combo features a wood-burning fireplace with rustic reclaimed-wood mantle, and sliders to your private patio space. The sunny, eat-in kitchen has plenty of counter space. Owners can enter from their private entrance on front side of the unit, or through the patio entrance in the back. Rowayton Woods benefits from close proximity to Rowayton's beaches, village and is an easy commute to Rowayton's MetroNorth Train Station.
