Offering 5 acres of beautiful grounds, this 1920 Mediterranean estate has been reduced to $2.59 million in Stamford, Connecticut. Listing details: A truly spectacular 5-acre estate with 4 outbuildings on the Mianus River, WESTOVER FALLS has one of the most dramatic water views in this area. Approach down a long drive to reveal a pebbled front courtyard. This Mediterranean villa’s white stucco walls and wrought iron balconies evoke a feeling of 1920’s Europe. Inside you are drawn past the curve of a grand staircase to the abundant light of a generously-sized living room with a stately stone fireplace. Commanding views through the French doors to the gardens, terrace, and pool below are unquestionably the focal point. The living room opens to the Library with a magnificent fireplace, recessed bookshelves, and a domed library porch.
Opposite is the dining room with picture window views to the gardens beyond. The 6 bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath and ample closets are the epitome of the modern plan. Note the Master Bedroom’s barrel ceiling with domed fireplace and windows on 3 sides. Balconies front and back offer views of the river beyond. The slate-topped pool house with a flagstone floor provides a kitchen for casual poolside entertaining. Garden paths wind between the raised beds and elaborate retaining walls, with approximately 600′ of river frontage. In addition to a chauffeur’s cottage and guest house, a vintage brick cottage perched on the riverbank stands watch by the waterfall. This confection is a triumph of Mediterranean Revival style-and truly they don’t make them like this anymore. One or more of this property’s owners is a Real Estate Licensee. This spectacular property is on the market for $2.59 million with John Engel of Douglas Elliman of Connecticut. Photography by Alan Barry Photography.
