19 Valeview Road, Wilton, CT 06897

Once in a lifetime opportunity to own an extraordinary five-acre estate in South Wilton, a cherished retreat. Updated but maintaining the original character, this special property adjacent to a bucolic horse farm makes you feel like you are a world away, but access to everything is easy. NYC is only an hour away, with an 8-minute drive to the highway. Five minutes to town, seven minutes to schools. This 5500 sf home with 800 sf legal rental apartment is designed for spectacular entertaining reflective of the glamour of the 30's, with french doors to patio with gas fire pit and built-in grill, and great flow from living room to dining room to outdoor space. The handsome kitchen opens to the screened porch and features two porcelain farm sinks, Sub-Zero refrigerator and separate beverage drawers, and a stunning Bertazonni gas range. A sunny first floor bedroom with full bath provides opportunity for guests/in-laws who prefer one-level living, and the apartment is a wonderful space for live-in staff, visitors or tenants, or makes a perfect cottage for the caretaker of this beloved weekend home. Primary Suite includes a spacious full bath that opens to a deck overlooking the gorgeous back yard. The sweeping lawn is a haven for outdoor games, leading to refreshment in the gorgeous gunite pool and spa with lush, professional landscaping and a 2nd gas fire pit. There is nothing like "Valeview"--an iconic treasure with a magical, calming quality.
