Call for Availability - Surrounded by stone walls, this one-of-a-kind, spectacular and private 36-acre Greenfield Hill country compound has had a stunning top-level transformation, creating a breathtaking Fairfield County estate like no other.

Lofty ceilings and walls of glass create magical interior spaces. Libraries, play spaces, private wings, a hidden theater, and a stunning Moroccan lounge with bar are some of the special features of this extraordinary property. The full array of amenities includes a striking and sunny pool and chic barn-style pool house with full kitchen, bath and spacious gym. A beautifully updated separate stone farmhouse easily accommodates guests or staff. The charming separate office pavilion is tucked in a private garden area.
