About this House

Tucked away on peaceful and highly sought-after Spectacle Lane, this property offers an exceptional blend of country-like privacy and convenient access to Wilton's top-rated schools, both Wilton and Ridgefield's charming town centers, and major commuter routes. It stands as a rare architectural masterpiece, having been lovingly restored to flawlessly showcase the soulful character and timeless craftsmanship of a 1925 home-an effortless allure that was recently featured in New York Magazine. The estate provides an incredibly versatile living arrangement with a total of three bedrooms. The main house features two character-filled bedrooms and light-filled living spaces, while a separate, private one-bedroom guest quarters offers the perfect setup for weekend visitors, extended family, an au pair or home office. A standout feature of the property is the dramatic, dedicated art studio/home office in the main house, boasting impressive vaulted ceilings and an abundance of natural light. Throughout both residences, the thoughtfully designed spaces serve as a blank canvas, offering incredible aesthetic flexibility that effortlessly accommodates any decor style-from classic traditional to sleek modern minimalism. Beyond the interior lies an outdoor sanctuary that feels worlds away. The breathtaking, estate-like grounds have been meticulously curated into a botanical garden-quality landscape, complete with rare specimen trees and lush, mature plantings. At the heart of this private park sits a massive, free-form swimming pool. Surrounded by vibrant greenery, the pool area serves as your own backyard resort, creating the ultimate backdrop for sophisticated entertaining or quiet, sun-drenched afternoons.

The parks are clean and well maintained, the rivers and lakes are clear and looked after. The Wilton community is friendly and welcoming, it’s a great place to call home."

    "Beautiful neighborhood, over rated schools. High taxes, high debt, Low turnout on budget issues. Poor road maintenance, wasted money on new school, with declining school age population. Retail outlets closing, with no incentives to stay. No plan to attract new businesses. A pompous attitude prevails by a community who time past by"

    "We live here and it is the best place we have ever lived! We thought when we bought it that we would move in a couple of years, but now we know this has everything we need and is safe, walkable, pet friendly, conveniently located and the neighborhood community is awesome. Having 4 bedrooms and a detached house with plenty of parking for our family and guests makes living easy. Our resident board and the management company are proactive and approachable. The grounds and upkeep through every season have been outstanding, nothing to complain about! These houses rarely come on the market and when they do there are always multiple bids. This has proven to be an amazing investment. Grumman Village possesses a desirable and stable mixed neighborhood of families, singles, couples and retirees."
