This restored 1836 Greek Revival residence once owned by publishing legend Max Perkins--editor to F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Marjorie Rawlings, and Thomas Wolfe is on the National Register of Historic Places. Filled with sculpture and a grove of mature evergreen trees, its contemporary garden is included in the Smithsonian's Archives for American Gardens. Though the elegant house and garden offers privacy, the location is but a short block from the New Canaan train station with rush-hour through trains to Grand Central Station, an hour to NYC. With its historic exterior, the interiors are decidedly modern with a two-story luminous loft-like architect's atelier with living quarters above. The 625 sq. ft. workshop occupies the carriage barn's second floor. Options: expandable, two condos-living possibilities, ideal live/work. Unique and not like anywhere else.
