Property Description

A WORLD-CLASS PRIVATE ESTATE SET ON 9.31 GATED ACRES. Nestled behind a private gated entry, this extraordinary CT River Valley estate is a rare luxury compound of architectural distinction, solitude, & resort-caliber amenities. Thoughtfully composed across 5 distinct structures, the property blends modern luxury, European influences, & timeless craftsmanship amid curated landscapes, stone pathways, terraces, & over 6,000sf of refined outdoor living space. This is a truly exceptional, once-in-a-lifetime offering. A long winding driveway gradually reveals an exclusive enclave where the outside world fades away. Stucco structures, cedar shake roofs, & copper gutters emerge in sequence, unified by professionally landscaped grounds, irrigation, & exterior lighting that enhances the estate's serene atmosphere. Completely rebuilt in 2012, & finished in 2015, the Main Residence is a masterclass in quality & livability. Rich millwork, custom cabinetry, radiant-heated hardwood floors, transom windows, & skylights define interiors that feel both elegant & inviting. A boutique-style coat room & jewel-box powder room immediately signal the home's uncompromising level of finish. The show-stopping kitchen features high-gloss bespoke cabinetry, nickel hardware, & a sculptural range hood beneath tall silver-leaf detailed ceilings. A substantial Calacatta marble island integrates a 2nd sink, butcher block, & concealed storage. Chef-grade appliances include SubZero, Wolf, & Miele. *CONTINUED* French doors open to stone patio w/built-in grill & views of spring-fed pond, creating seamless indoor-outdoor enjoyment. The living room is defined by a graceful barreled ceiling, stunning fireplace, & arched transom window w/water views beyond & leads into a sunroom a/vaulted ceiling, skylights, & built-in orchid garden. The sunken dining room makes a dramatic statement w/travertine floors, a coffered ceiling w/gold-leaf detail, & floor-to-ceiling windows. A club-inspired bar & cocktail lounge features a cathedral ceiling, crystal chandeliers, gorgeous wet bar, & richly textured finishes. The library is a refined study with built-ins, gas fireplace, granite accents, & staircase lined w/bookshelves & a window seat. The primary suite is a personal sanctuary w/stone patio, built-ins, automated shades, & dual walk-in closets w/tailored storage. 2 opulent marble baths include a whirlpool tub, Carrara marble shower, onyx & glass tile finishes, & hand-tailored vanities. An upper loft overlooks the bar & opens out to a covered balcony. The media room offers a cinematic retreat w/paneled walls, coffered tray ceiling, wet bar, & another outdoor balcony. A 2nd bedroom suite, featuring vaulted wood-paneled ceilings, skylights, built-in desk, cedar walk-in closet, & refined ensuite bath, is ideal for weekend visits or extended stays. Beyond the main residence, the Billiards House serves as a guest residence & entertainment pavilion w/vaulted ceilings, pool table room, gas fireplace, kitchen, private bedroom suite, den, 2-car garage, mudroom, & pergola-covered stone patio.
