About the Home
Set along a quiet private drive in North Stamford, this thoughtfully updated home offers a rare sense of calm, privacy, and effortless living. Positioned atop a gentle rise and backing to protected wetlands, the setting is both peaceful and enduring-surrounded by private, untouched land. Recent improvements enhance both longevity and ease, including Hardie Board siding, Trex decking, and a new roof, skylights, gutters, and guards. Fully paid solar panels support an energy-conscious lifestyle. Inside, the home is defined by light and openness. Skylights and expansive windows fill the space with soft natural brightness, while vaulted ceilings in the sitting room and primary bedroom add volume and airiness. Two working fireplaces, one a wood-burning stove, create warmth and character throughout. Radiant heated floors in the kitchen and advanced water filtration systems elevate everyday comfort. An oversized two-car garage offers added functionality, while the surrounding landscape provides a lasting sense of stillness and privacy-all just minutes from the Merritt Parkway and downtown Stamford.
