Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from August 21, 2023
A rare opportunity to become the next steward of an iconic vintage New Canaan property - lovingly cared for over generations by just three owners. Once called "Cedars Marching," named for the sprawling array of Cedar Trees throughout the estate, the home is beautifully sited back from the street on an oversized lot. It truly feels like an oasis, while only a few minutes from town! Original architectural highlights abound both inside and out including wood paneled library and formal living room (both with fireplaces), and spacious dining room with "butler's pantry,” high ceilings and well-preserved hardwood floors throughout. Additionally, the front-to-back entry foyer with adjacent vestibule has a gracious stairway to the second floor with its six bedrooms and five baths. The heart of the home is the all-season sunroom, which brings the indoors to the outdoors. With a completely glass facade, watching nature year-round is a treat. It also serves as a gateway to the sprawling backyard and gardens which offer an air of English romanticism - complete with specimen trees, wildflowers, an Apple tree, and a sunken garden leading to the charming in-ground pool area. Exciting details like this are what make the space truly unique. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of history and usher this home into its next chapter!
