About This Home

As of July 2021

Buyers were unable to obtain financing. Their loss is your gain.
Don’t miss this opportunity to own a turnkey home on two serene parklike acres just a few miles from charming downtown New Canaan.
437 Cheese Spring Road leaves nothing to be desired and is the perfect blend of convenience and privacy.
Enjoy the sunny summer days to come in your own pool, surrounded by irrigated grounds and perennial gardens with a treehouse.
On chilly nights, turn up the pool heater for a swim or relax by the gas fire pit.
This 5 bedroom, 4.5 bath home is renovated in a functional modern farmhouse style with all of today’s must-have comforts. Elegant details include shiplap walls, wooden beams, rustic wood floors, and both wood-burning and gas fireplaces to appease everyone in the family.
The hub of the home shines with two-tone inset-door cabinetry, seated granite island, farmhouse sink overlooking the backyard, stainless appliances, gas cooktop, double ovens, and dining area.
Natural light floods every room, particularly the first-floor master suite. Wake up to a workout in the master sunroom and a shower in the marble master bath.
Also on the main floor is a second bedroom, full bath, laundry room, and powder room. Upstairs you’ll find three more bedrooms and two baths.
Other peace-of-mind must-haves you’ll enjoy are the two-car garage, security system, central air, radiant heat, whole house generator, and full finished entertainment basement with storage area.
