For years, this waterfront Greenwich estate has been on C&G’s radar. First, it was featured in CTC&G in 2016. Then last October, dailyDEEDS reported that the majestic residence hit the market for $58 million. Just in time for spring 2024, it has been freshly re-listed for $49.5 million, making it the priciest active listing in Greenwich.
The home was renovated in 2014 by architect Cormac Byrne and designer Eugenie Niven Goodman, whose goals included infusing historic features with airy and contemporary finishes. From the outside, rich bricks are adorned with crawling ivy and boxwoods frame the front door in a way that harkens to a bygone era. This timeless first impression is further elevated with the checkered flooring that awaits in the foyer, but the interios have also been updated and expanded to reflect the luxuries of today.
Spanning across almost 12,500 square feet, there is no shortage of living space to utilize. Designers opted to put the formal living and dining rooms on the original foundation, while the kitchen and family room has been rebuilt into the informal wing. Speaking of the kitchen, no expense has been spared in creating a stunning anchor for entertaining, complete with top-of-the-line appliances and more than enough prep space.
Moving on up the sweeping staircase, this is where you’ll find all of the home’s bedrooms and bathrooms. There’s a total of six, with the primary suite poised as a coastal crown jewel. Complete with a walk-in closet, stunning ensuite and a private balcony, it’s the picture of bliss with views of the Long Island Sound abounding.
Bringing the listing to the market is Jennifer Leahy of Douglas Elliman, who made headlines last year for selling Great Island in Darien for $85 million, which is the second most expensive sale ever in Connecticut.
