Welcome to Arundel, unlike anything else in Connecticut, this extraordinary private estate was envisioned by acclaimed playwright Joseph Hayes, and his passion for medieval theatre inspired one of the areas most distinctive residences. Set on nearly six acres, the property is a world of its own, with sweeping lawns, shimmering ponds and fountains, a private putting green, charming guest cottage, and an impressive six-car tandem garage. Designed for both grand entertaining and everyday living, the main residence is anchored by a breathtaking gathering room where soaring ceilings and a dramatic sunken stone fireplace create an unforgettable centerpiece. Elegant dining spaces, a thoughtfully designed chef's kitchen, and walls of windows overlooking the grounds make every room feel connected to the estate's remarkable setting. A rare and highly desirable feature, the home offers two main-level primary suites. The principal suite includes a gracious private foyer, spa-inspired bath, walk-in closets, and a secluded deck overlooking the pond. The second suite features its own full bath and beautiful stone fireplace, making it ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or anyone seeking the convenience of a main-level bedroom. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, two with private balconies, along with a full bath and laundry room. The walk-out lower level was designed for recreation and entertaining, offering gaming and billiards rooms...
a home gym, and a comfortable lounge that opens directly to the patio and hot tub. Equally impressive, the separate guest cottage includes a kitchen and bath, providing exceptional flexibility for extended guests, an au pair, or home office. Completing the estate are the expansive circular driveway and six-car tandem garage, a dream for car enthusiasts, collectors, or those needing extraordinary storage. Rich in character and exceptional in design, Arundel offers a lifestyle rarely found and even more rarely available.

ARUNDEL, a spectacular example of flawless English architecture detailing and an exquisite setting welcomes you to one of the finest estates in Fairfield County. Designed by playwright Joseph Hayes, whose penchant for medieval theatre inspired him to create this idyllic setting. The iron-studded front door, three inches thick, with iron latches and bolts came from an Austrian castle. The home gracefully flows with a dramatic cathedral ceiling and antique timbers which entice you as the focal point. Two grand master suites both with full baths and fireplaces. Settled on almost 6 acres of manicured landscaping with two tranquil ponds as well as a guest cottage with kitchenette and full bath. It's the perfect blend of yesterday and today...
