Tucked at the end of a long, sweeping driveway in one of New Canaan's most coveted enclaves, this stately residence is a masterclass in timeless design and exceptional craftsmanship. Created for both elevated entertaining and everyday comfort, the home unfolds with sophisticated ease-from the grand front entry to the beautifully curated interiors. Every space is thoughtfully scaled and exquisitely finished, with abundant natural light and views of the spectacular grounds from nearly every room. At its heart is a stunning, expansive chef's kitchen with a large center island, high-end appliances, and custom cabinetry that flows into the inviting family room-a perfect blend of elegance and ease. Formal rooms are gracious yet welcoming, offering effortless transitions to the outdoors. The rear grounds are extraordinary: manicured gardens, a pool surrounded by lush vines reminiscent of a Napa retreat, and a terrace spanning the length of the home-ideal for alfresco dining, entertaining, or quiet evenings under the stars. Upstairs, all bedrooms are ensuite, including a remarkable primary suite with spa bath and oversized walk-in closet. A guest wing offers its own skylit sitting room, while the finished lower level features a golf simulator, wine room, fitness room, elevator, and abundant storage. A full-service elevator connects the lower, main, and second levels of the home, offering ease and accessibility throughout. A rare opportunity to own an iconic home.
