794 Sasco Hill Rd, Fairfield, CT 06824

An absolutely stunning home on Sasco Hill Road overlooking the Country Club of Fairfield golf course, Southport Harbor, and out to Long Island Sound all the way down to the Manhattan Skyline. The circa 1937 house was originally designed by noted MIT trained architect Louis C. Rosenberg utilizing the classical rules of scale and proportion. The current owners undertook a substantial renovation overseen by Mark P. Finlay Architects, AIA (see addendum). The result is a magazine quality residence, in move in condition, that enjoys one of the finest views in New England. Must be seen to be truly appreciated.
