Designed by acclaimed architect Dinyar Wadia, this exceptional 5-bedroom estate is set on park-like grounds just minutes from downtown New Canaan. Tranquil gardens, a scenic pond, meandering stream, and curated perennial plantings create a rare sense of serenity and privacy - an ideal setting for both entertaining and everyday living. In the main residence, a gracious foyer introduces elegant, well-proportioned interiors, with dining and living rooms anchored by a double-sided stone fireplace. The gourmet kitchen opens to the family room, sunroom, and front and rear covered porches. The home also features multiple private offices and sun-filled bedrooms, including a serene primary-suite with vaulted ceiling, fireplace, private porch, and own sauna. A third-floor suite provides a private guest retreat, while the fully finished lower level includes a dedicated gym with separate entrance. Exceptional outdoor living unfolds with a heated pool, outdoor kitchen, fieldstone fireplace, spa tub, stone terraces, and covered dining areas. A six-person sauna with full bath enhances the spa-like atmosphere, while an authentic tea house provides the ideal setting for yoga or meditation. A refined separate barn/garage includes a beautifully appointed 1-bedroom apartment-perfect for guests, extended family, or a private retreat. The expansive garage accommodates up to six cars, with space for lifts and multiple charging stations, offering a rare opportunity for the discerning car collector.
