About This Home

As of December 2017

WATERFALL HOUSE. Set on a river with waterfall views from almost every room, you won’t find another home like this. A private, country setting, minutes to Westport, downtown Wilton, and about an hour from Manhattan (by train or car). Close to the beach, restaurants, organic grocery stores, farmer’s markets. Great schools, entertainment, amenities, family life. Get the feel, charm and character of an Antique but in a modern-day house with an open floor plan and vaulted ceilings. Don’t worry about headaches or surprises with an older home; everything is in tip-top shape. Over $250,000 in improvements: new roof, septic, A/C and heating equipment, basement waterproofing, eco-friendly spray foam insulation, glass conservatory, etc. No flooding problems, even during Hurricane Sandy. The Rose Adams Kitchen & Great Room feature huge fireplaces. Yet, this home is not too big. Easy entertaining with Butler’s Pantry, double ovens/dishwashers. Amazing outdoor spaces: naturally created, nearly impossible to re-create. Folding patio doors open to waterfall. Partly in Weston: get a parking pass for Compo Beach. IMAGINE: Step out of the bedroom onto a balcony for a morning cappuccino overlooking the river (or an evening glass of wine). Fish for trout in the backyard. Enjoy the outdoors from inside the glass-roofed sunroom. Invite friends from the City for a country escape to spend a night in an antique hayloft, converted into a romantic guest suite.
