About This Home

As of April 2021

Sitting atop the coveted Jo's Barn Way in downtown Rowayton, this jewel box home was designed and built by Barbara Garfield. Reclaimed wide plank floors are complemented by vaulted ceilings with reclaimed wood beams and iron detailing throughout. Looking out on a magical courtyard with an outdoor fireplace, the kitchen is complete with high-end appliances and a dining area. Boasting two bedrooms and a convertible third bedroom loft with 10 foot ceilings, the home emanates a cozy ambiance all the while feeling spacious and open. The master bathroom includes a bathtub, steam shower, vaulted ceilings and an abundance of closet space. Two additional bathrooms plank the other bedrooms. Across the street from Pinkney Park, a ten minute walk to the beach, a three minute walk to town and an hour outside the city, this house is ethereal in every way.
