Gorgeous formal living room & dining rooms. Designer kitchen w/quartz island, top of the line appliances & walk-in pantry. Expansive great room w/gas fireplace & casual dining area w/French doors.

Paradise awaits in the backyard: a show-stopping custom Gunite pool w/auto-close cover & extra-wide bluestone coping, surrounded by multiple bluestone patio areas, specimen trees & plantings, lush lawn, irrigation system & exquisite masonry--creating a truly private, resort-like oasis. Walk to downtown Fairfield restaurants, music venues, public library, Penfield & Jennings Beach, Sherman School playground & fields.
