Tucked away in the serenity of Greenwich's prime mid-country, a charming five-bedroom Cotswold carriage house is set back beyond old stone walls on an exceptionally private 2.54-acre landscape. Common land deeded from the vintage estate encircles the property, protecting and enhancing the 5,428-square-foot residence and expansive grounds. Filled with natural light, the delightful family home is an eclectic showpiece of old-world character with modern accents and additions blended into the 1930's period architecture. A spacious antechamber introduces the columned living room with nine-foot ceilings, a fireplace and an Old Dutch door. Elegant for entertaining, the formal dining room opens to a gracious pergola overlooking magnificent organic lawns. The heart of the home is the gourmet Vermont country kitchen and neighboring family room with entertainment center and dining area. Adjoining the family room, the mudroom with custom cabinetry and radiant-heated floors provides easy access to an attached three-car garage. Completing the main level are the master suite with a fireplace, the cozy study, and two powder rooms. The upper level, accessible from both front and back stairways, features a large play-area landing, four double en suite bedrooms, and an office with a large terrace, which could be an additional en suite bedroom. Highlights include a security/fire alarm system, town water, natural gas, four-zone heating, and invisible fence. Enjoying an outstanding location and one of the finest addresses in Greenwich, this private retreat is convenient to town, transportation and Parkway Elementary/Central Middle Schools. A unique and wonderful find to enjoy as is, renovate or build anew.
