A rare and distinguished offering in mid-country Greenwich, an estate of architectural significance, ready to be reimagined for modern luxury living. The Helen C. Douglas house was designed by the renowned Twachtman Brothers, blending classic elegance with warmth, sophistication and scale. Set on 3.8 acres of beautifully landscaped, private grounds, the property features a pool, tennis court, and a striking allée of chestnut trees. The estate was also featured in the 2014 film ''And So It Goes'' starring Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton. A gracious front-to-back foyer invites you into the home's classic interiors. Formal living and dining rooms are complemented by a wood-paneled library, chef's kitchen, spacious family room and additional entertaining space. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a fireplace, dual baths, and dressing rooms. Three additional ensuite bedrooms complete the second level, while the finished third floor offers a flexible bedroom and recreational space with a full bath--ideal for a variety of lifestyle needs.
Rarely does a property of this caliber, provenance, and scale present itself. This is a singular opportunity to restore, refine, or reimagine a legacy estate in one of Greenwich's most coveted enclaves.
