Designed in 1937 by noted architect William McKnight Bowman, this gracious Georgian Colonial is impressively sited on 6.16 landscaped acres, with broad lawns, gardens and apple orchard; an adjoining 8+ acre land trust property offers additional protected open space. Classic symmetry, perfectly proportioned rooms, Jeffersonian windows; many original details throughout. Pool house w/guest quarters, caretaker's cottage & tennis court. Without a doubt this is one of New Canaan's last great estates.
