Description
The Ultimate East Coast Sanctuary, Where Privacy Meets Pinnacle Luxury. Surrounded by high stone walls, a fortress of modern architecture is invisible from the street and engineered for the world's most discerning buyers who demand seclusion with proximity to NYC. This 38.91-acre compound is a one-of-a-kind Fairfield County estate. The former home of Richard Rodgers, composer of The Sound of Music, the mid-century main residence has been masterfully reimagined to incorporate 7 private bedroom suites, all with views over the landscaped property. The bespoke renovation was executed with uncompromising attention to detail and a true no-expense-spared philosophy, incorporating commercial-grade infrastructure, superior materials, and artisan-level craftsmanship throughout, as if cost were no consideration. Lofty ceilings and walls of glass are a perfect setting for an art collector. Separate wings radiate off the main rooms, each space private and thoughtfully composed. A hidden screening room, a stunning Moroccan lounge, and a guest wing allow for A-list entertaining. The barn pool house with full kitchen, bath and pro-grade gym, the pool, and a heated paddle court make this a perfect athlete's compound. Property includes renovated stone guest/caretaker cottage and a private office pavilion. The landscape offers open vistas, an orchard, and allowed equestrian use. Live in ultimate style and privacy surrounded by a 155-acre nature access to NYC, Greenwich, Westport and airports.
