About the Complex

Map of Lantern Way Condominium Complex, in New Canaan, CT

Lantern Way is a highly appreciated waterfront community located in the heart of New Canaan Town Center,  yet in a very quiet and green area, right across the Mead Park and its beautiful 5-acre pond. 

The complex was built in 1973 in a park-like setting with landscaped gardens and grassy areas surrounded by small wooded hills and towering trees.

It is comprised of just 8 townhouse units offering 1300+ to 1800+ square feet, 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths.

All homes have been beautifully renovated and updated. They all offer a bright and spacious living room with a dining area, featuring a fireplace and large sliding doors opening to a private terrace. The living rooms boast built-ins and many fine finishes like crown molding, high quality hardwood floors and recessed lights.

The kitchens are also spacious, with a nice, sun-lit breakfast area and they feature custom cabinetry, typically granite or quartz countertops, hardwood or tile flooring and fine design elements like recessed lights.

The upper floor offers bright and comfortable bedrooms with built in closets, 2 full baths with fine finishes and plenty of storage spaces, including the pull-down attic.

Most lower levels have been fully finished and they now feature a family or exercise room. Some homes also have a lower level laundry room, and all units have a 1 car garage space.

One of the many great things about the Lantern Way location is the Mead Park, right in front of the complex, which offers breathtaking views and amazing opportunities for recreation. The park has a large pond with a stream, and it includes many facilities: a full size baseball field and 2 little league fields, 8 clay tennis courts, 5 pickleball courts, playscape facilities, a playground area and lighted ice skating in the winter. There' s also a food service Lodge with a terrace. 

Mead Memorial Park is connected with Bristow Bird Sanctuary and Wildwood Preserve, home to about 100 bird species including warblers, tanagers, vireos and woodpeckers. A truly special place for the New Canaan community and bird watchers in the nearby towns, Bristow Park offers several  walking trails, a duck pond and many streams and brooks. 

Just a 20 minutes walk from Lantern Way, there's another green gem of New Canaan: the 300-acre Waveny Park which surrounds the famous "castle" built in 1912, now a National Historic Place and a sought-after venue for weddings and other events. The Park offers nearly 3.5 miles of walking trails through the woods, a 1.5-acre dog park, several picnic areas and sports facilities. You can enjoy soccer, baseball, and softball fields, platform tennis courts, a swimming facility and an artificial turf water tower field. Waveny Park is also home to PowerHouse Performing Arts Center,  the  Carriage Barn Arts Center, and to Lapham Community Center.

Some of the highest rated public schools in Connecticut are just a few minutes drive or a short walk from Lantern Way: East Elementary, South School Elementary, Saxe Middle School, New Canaan High School.

The complex is perfectly located for commuters: just a few minutes to Merritt Parkway, making a drive to Manhattan typically less than an hour, and just a 10 minutes walk away from New Canaan Train Station.

Lantern Way offers a great opportunity to live comfortably in a beautiful complex and enjoy one of the best locations in the charming New Canaan Town Center.
