About the Home

This three bedroom Cape Cod house embodies the timeless charm of its architectural style and is looking for the right steward to offer additional tender loving care to realize it’s full potential. With a nostalgic allure and a canvas rich with opportunity, this property invites you to breathe new life into its walls and create a haven that blends historic charm with modern comforts. The kitchen and large breakfast room was expanded and updated some years ago, as was the primary bath. Formerly home to a master gardener, the enchanting dormant gardens and greenhouse await the chance to be rejuvenated and bloom again. The house is set back from the road for privacy, and is ideally sited - just minutes away to East School and the village of New Canaan. Code compliant four bedroom reserve system on file with Town Hall,
