About This Home

As of May 2020

Set behind a classic stone wall, on an immaculately landscaped lawn along one of the most beautiful streets in New Canaan, this Colonial-style home is a rarity on the market in New Canaan. With more than 4,000 square feet of living space (not including the 1000 square foot finished basement), the 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath home is a masterpiece of classic architecture, situated at the end of a long, private driveway that leads to a cul-de-sac anchored by a gorgeous hedgerow. With over 2.25 acres surrounded by mature trees, a private har-true tennis court, and an in-ground trampoline, this property is truly unique.
