Beyond a private gated entrance and sweeping circular drive lies a 2.5-acre sanctuary that redefines New Canaan luxury. Originally envisioned by Douglas Carter Architects and recently reimagined by its designer-owner, this estate seamlessly merges architectural pedigree with contemporary soul. The residence spans four finished levels, where soaring ceilings and walls of glass invite the lush landscape inside. At the heart of the home, a newly updated gourmet kitchen serves as a culinary showpiece. The primary suite is a true retreat, offering a private balcony, fireplace, and the rare luxury of dual bathrooms. Each of the six bedrooms in the main house features an ensuite bath, ensuring absolute privacy for family and guests alike. The amenities rival the world's finest resorts: a walk-out lower level equipped with a theater and wine room, and a 30x50 lagoon-style pool. The 2020-built pool house (700+ sq. ft.) provides a full guest experience with its own kitchen, bath, and flexible sleeping quarters-all just five minutes from the boutiques and bistros of New Canaan's vibrant village center.
