Finding the perfect house can be a real hunt, so when you come across a property that ticks all your boxes, it almost feels like magic has struck. This newly listed abode in charming Wilton, Connecticut could be that mystical find for many, as its location and stunning interiors cater to everyone from the avid entertainer to the nature-lover to the spa enthusiast. Asking $1.635 million, the 6,230-square-foot haven is a mix of old and new, tranquil and fun, and it could be the home sweet home you’ve been searching for.Nestled on a sweet cul de sac down the road from Rolling Hills Country Club and Ambler Farm in one direction and luxurious Westport shops and restaurants in the other direction, the location will never leave you bored. Cherry Lane Park and the Norwalk River Trail are just a short walk away, too, but you may never want to leave the five-bedroom, seven-bathroom residence since it can fulfil every whim with a hot tub, media room, game room, and sprawling backyard and patio.Driving up to the 2005-built spread, the Colonial-style exterior stands out from the crowd thanks to a triple-gable roof that commands attention. Green shutters hint at the home’s inviting character, which shines inside with light-filled, open spaces prime for entertaining. Serve champagne cocktails and hors d’oeuvres around the large kitchen island, then watch as guests naturally gravitate toward the rustic family room and mingle in front of the stone fireplace or flow through the stately butler’s pantry into the elegant dining room.Although the interiors are undoubtedly beautiful, they are also livable and can serve as the backdrop for a lifetime of special memories, from first prom pictures to Thanksgiving dinners. Small, everyday moments will be a pleasure here as well. The master suite was designed to be a serene retreat, offering a lovely sitting room and a divine bathroom with a huge shower and Jacuzzi tub.Lynne Murphy and Karin Venditti of Realty Seven have this brilliant 9 Banks Drive listing.
