Greenwich, Connecticut
Classic 17,800 square foot stone and clapboard residence, nestled on 2.08 acres and almost completely surrounded by an 11.2 acre land preserve. This magnificent estate redefines tradition in the pastoral seclusion of Greenwich's exclusive horse country. Masterfully designed by architect Richard Granoff emanates the classic architectural style, vintage charm and romantic character of the country's great old manor houses, sitting in a tranquil cul-de-sac at the end of a Belgian block-lined drive, with a welcoming courtyard. A charming porte-cochere complements this gracious residence embraced by multiple terraces overlooking a sculptured landscape with grand lawns, flowering trees and gorgeous perennial rose and hydrangea gardens.
Designed with space and amenities uniquely suited for a young, active family. From the garden level family room, wine cellar and full bath, to the first floor's expansive kitchen, grand living room, banquet-sized dining room and stunning mahogany-paneled library, this residence is meant for family life and social gatherings. On the second floor, five en-suite bedrooms plus a master suite wing with a private sitting room and mahogany balcony ensure that family and guests all have personal retreats. Vaulted ceilings throughout the third floor create a dramatic setting for a children's playroom or homework room.
Exceptionally well proportioned interior architecture features intricately detailed mill work, wainscoting, magnificent flooring, elegant coffered ceilings and fireplaces. In most of the principal rooms French doors open to gracious terraces, providing splendid formal and informal venues for family enjoyment and guest entertainment.
The kitchen features imported Carrera marble, professional appliances, a large center island and walk-in butler's pantry. French doors lead to a spacious breakfast room, beyond which lies a covered terrace with an outdoor fireplace ideal for casual al fresco dining.
It features superior state-of-the-art systems, a three stop elevator, two laundry rooms, a generator and heated garages for four cars, a home theatre, home gym and spa quality bathrooms.
Surrounded by elegant landscaping within a secluded wooded conservation area the mansion has qualities of great elegance and casual grandeur. The stone and clapboard exterior, generously proportioned formal rooms and extensive master bedroom suite speak to a traditional lifestyle.
