Set on over 36 acres of rolling meadowlands and pastures, laced with a picturesque network of 17th century stone walls and white-fenced paddocks, and featuring two ponds as well as a lively stream, this one-of-a-kind equestrian estate is an enchanting oasis of tranquility just minutes from downtown Greenwich and Stamford. The expansive and masterfully crafted cedar-shingled main residence is thoughtfully designed with remarkable indoor and outdoor living and entertainment spaces. High ceilings, large windows, and numerous French doors ensure that this five-bedroom six-and-a-half-bath main residence is filled with natural light while multiple terraces and balconies showcasing sweeping views make it ideal for indoor-outdoor living. In addition to a chef-caliber kitchen that opens to a family room, this three-story home offers formal dining and living rooms and a fitness and entertainment level that opens to a wrap-around terrace. Elegant interior details include decorative millwork and cabinetry; hardwood, stone, and marble flooring; and several stone-surround fireplaces. The extensive primary suite offers three walk-in closets, two private balconies, and a home office. The separate 4,200 sq ft, Frank Lloyd Wright inspired second house features three bedrooms, contemporary architecture, and its own outdoor swimming pool, providing luxurious private accommodations for family and friends. The two-bedroom, one-bathroom guest house features a homey fireplace, kitchen, and living room with upscale amenities.
This estate celebrates the iconic elegance of the equestrian lifestyle with a world-class barn featuring rustic stone and brick flooring and classically styled custom millwork. In addition to nine large 12-by-12-foot stalls, the barn has a wash bay, tack room, feed room, and office. Countryside living beyond the saddle is equally elevated. A tennis court is set into the landscape next to an orchard of mature fruit trees and an organically shaped pool is surrounded by a large stone patio with dining and lounging areas.
Just a short distance from Greenwich and Stamford in southwest Connecticut, this property is adjacent to the Greenwich Trail System, which offers 150 miles of equestrian trails truly an unparalleled setting for passionate riders.
