As of November 2024

Seller providing $100k credit for closing costs. Hidden in plain sight, gorgeous sanctuary in the heart of Rowayton! The Ruth C. Chapel House is nestled on a tranquil street, nearby restaurants, beaches, and all the town conveniences.In 2017 the main house and outdoor spaces were fully renovated in collaboration with an acclaimed Interior Designer: updates to the kitchen and master bath by Kitchens By Deane, upgraded lighting, Control4, Sonos systems, reclaimed French White Oak flooring on the entire first floor, exposed beams, four bedrooms, four fireplaces, two laundry rooms, and an electric car charging station. The basement provides ample dry storage, laundry facilities, and a second refrigerator. A whole-house generator is also included. The stunning pool house boasts a kitchenette, loft bedroom, full bath, fireplace, with endless possibilities: remote work, au pair/in-laws, guest quarters, artist/workout studio, and so on.

The current owners have spared no expenses to care for and upgrade this property: new air conditioning, new water heater, new washer/dryer, upgraded landscaping, refinished floors and kitchen countertops, new paint, etc. This secluded gem is turnkey and a rare opportunity not to miss.
