About This Home

As of August 2020

First impressions are everything, and it starts from the minute you enter the desirable and coveted community of Christopher Estates.
This classic colonial greets you with its superb curb appeal as you enter the long driveway and pull in to your private 2-car garage. Welcome your guests through the grand two-story entrance with Palladian window. A light & bright open floor plan provides plenty of space for daily living and social gatherings. The heart of the home kitchen opens to an ample dining area with built-ins, which then opens up to the great room with vaulted ceiling, floor to ceiling wood-burning stone fireplace, built-in bookcases, & skylights. The main floor flows effortlessly to a large deck, perfect for entertaining guests or spending time outdoors. Follow the elegant, turned staircase to an office, 3 additional bedrooms & a large bonus room that can be used as a family room, playroom, or recreation room. The master suite is generous in size and features a spacious walk-in closet. The 2020 remodeled master bath offers skylight, 2 separate vanities and freestanding soaking tub with separate shower. A well-maintained home with custom landscaping and underground automatic sprinkler system with nine zones, exterior lighting, and electric invisible fence. A peaceful oasis, both inside and out, in a must-see, special neighborhood. Convenient location to shopping, dining, and transportation. 2 miles to the Westport Train Station & steps away from the Commuter Shuttle.
