From a fitness room to the tennis court to the pool and spa, there is no shortage of fun to be had at this four-acre estate in one of Connecticut’s most prestigious coastal communities.
Mediterranean details like the Spanish barrel-style roof and iron rail balconies set a tone of easy luxury inside and out. The house overlooks a manicured lawn with a pool, aerated pond and Har-Tru tennis court. “My favorite spot has to be the balcony overlooking the grounds,” says Jessica Lane, co-real estate advisor for the listing and founding partner at Serhant CT. “The exteriors are truly spectacular, from the gated entrance and long drive to the expansive grounds with mature trees and specimen plantings. The landscaping is very well thought out.”
Inside, guests walk into a reception hall all in white with a grand staircase and French doors to the rear terrace. A modern chandelier is the center of attention on the coffered ceiling two stories above. In the kitchen, custom cabinetry and Carrera marble countertops are light, bright and continue the relaxed luxury vibe on the exterior.
The more than 6,000-square-foot home has six bedrooms and seven bathrooms to accommodate family and guests. “The ideal buyer is someone who values privacy, luxury, and a connection to nature,” says Danielle Malloy, co-real estate agent for the property and managing broker at Serhant CT. “This property is perfect for those looking for a home with everyday luxury conveniences all year round, or someone seeking a retreat that balances proximity to New York City with the tranquility of coastal living. It’s located on a street with some of the most significant properties on the East Coast shoreline. It would also appeal to those who enjoy hosting and entertaining, given its extensive amenities and breathtaking setting.”
On the lower level, a wine cellar has room for intimate tastings. On the main floor, French doors lead to the outdoor patio from the reception hall, formal living room and off the family room. An outdoor pavilion with kitchen is just off the pool and spa for easy entertaining. There is also plenty of room for a home office or two for work-from-home options. Modern conveniences like a central vacuum system, new HVAC and camera systems are also up to date.
“Today’s buyers are looking for properties that offer a seamless blend of indoor and outdoor living, privacy, and top-of-the-line amenities,” says Malloy. “This home checks all those boxes.”
The home is one of only four properties with direct deeded gate access to Greens Farms Academy, which is adjacent to the property. But those looking for proximity to the sound and to Westport, CT, restaurants and shops will find it convenient as well. The sound is just across the street and Westport’s rich cultural scene, including Westport Country Playhouse and MoCA Westport, is just minutes away.
“The combination of scenic beauty, upscale amenities, and a strong sense of community makes Westport a sought-after destination for luxury home buyers,” says Lane.
