About the Home

Timeless luxury meets exceptional craftsmanship at 98 Banks Place, where a meticulous restoration and rebuild, completed in 2017, transformed an 1830 Greek Revival into a home offering the comfort of new construction while preserving the soul, warmth, and character only a home of this era can provide. Original floors, brick, timbers, custom windows, reclaimed hardware, and period details blend seamlessly with custom millwork, barrel ceilings, Belgian stone flooring, designer finishes, radiant-heated floors, and all-new systems. A chef's kitchen with concealed scullery anchors gracious living spaces, while an inviting family room and serene primary suite balance gathering and retreat. Set on nearly 5.5 private acres, the property is designed for indoor-outdoor living with a resort-style pool, year-round spa, expansive bluestone patio, outdoor kitchen, double-sided fireplace, and new pool house offering flexible space for guests, entertaining, an in-law suite, or future living accommodations. Sweeping lawns, formal gardens, an apple orchard, enclosed vegetable garden, and mature green screening create a private retreat unlike any other. Moments from Southport Village, Southport Harbor, Pequot Library, Southport Beach, dining, and the train, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy estate-like living in one of Fairfield County's most sought-after coastal communities, where old-world charm, modern ease, and a walkable coastal lifestyle come together in a truly one-of-a-kind offering.
