About This Home

As of January 2021

Rare opportunity to acquire this coastal Connecticut Hidden Jewel. Using the highest quality chemical-free materials, in 2004 the award winning designer/owner rebuilt & expanded this meticulously maintained, "green" home. The gated entry & long circular drive lead you to the charming custom residence, set on 1.15 private acres amidst a crab apple orchard, organic gardens & a 7 ring labyrinth meditation path. A welcoming covered porch & stone terrace invite you into the two story entry, to experience the sun-filled open floor plan featuring elegant spaces, with french doors to multiple patios overlooking the serene property. Two options for a master; one on the first floor & the other a fabulous suite, encompassing the most of the second floor with balcony, dressing room, plus a 4th bedroom. Whole house generator. Live a healthy lifestyle with nearby ocean breezes, tucked away, close to all conveniences. On the Westport line & across from Shorehaven Golf Club and easy access to the Norwalk and Westport train stations and I95.
