About This Home
Private Greenfield Hill Retreat on 2+ Acres with Guest Suite, Modern Updates & Equestrian Potential.Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of Greenfield Hill, this rare property offers privacy, flexibility, and modern comfort. From the moment you enter, the craftsmanship is unmistakable featuring a handcrafted staircase, custom millwork, built-ins, and a dramatic barrel ceiling living room anchored by a stone fireplace. The refreshed chef's kitchen includes a center island, double ovens, pantry, and granite countertops, opening to a sun filled sitting area with views of mature plantings. The floor plan offers exceptional versatility. A first floor wing, currently configured as an in-law suite with full kitchen, bedroom, full bath, walk-in closet, and laundry, can easily function as a primary suite, guest retreat, or additional bedroom adapting seamlessly to changing needs. Upstairs, you'll find two addt'l ensuite bedrooms, a cedar closet, and generous walk in storage, providing privacy and comfort throughout. Addt'l highlights include new main level flooring, upgraded lighting, a whole house generator, and reverse osmosis water filtration system, offering both convenience and peace of mind. Outside, a stone terrace overlooks the expansive backyard, while a separate outbuilding provides space for addt'l vehicles, a workshop, or equestrian use. Ideally located near both Fairfield and Westport, the property feels completely private while remaining close to everything.
