Set on one of Fairfield's most coveted streets, this is the kind of home families spend years hoping will become available. Set on 3.35 acres on prestigious Verna Hill Road, adjacent to Fairfield Country Day School, this is the kind of property that becomes the backdrop for decades of memories. Summer afternoons by the pool and spa. Holiday dinners that bring everyone together. At the center of it all is a home that balances grandeur with warmth. The gracious living and dining rooms, with their soaring ceilings, were made for entertaining, while the sunroom and family room naturally become gathering places, overlooking the pool, patio, and grounds. Tucked away, a richly paneled office with fireplace and French doors opening to a private garden provides a quiet retreat. The four bedrooms are all en-suite, with the primary offering his and her baths and dressing rooms, along with the convenience of an elevator. Connected by a breezeway, the detached three-car garage is topped by a 1,000 sqft studio apartment (5th bedroom) with a kitchen, full bath, and washer and dryer-ideal for au-pair, extended family or gym. Outside, resort-style amenities include a pool, spa, expansive terraces overlooking the flat manicured backyard. Properties like this are increasingly rare: timeless architecture, one of Fairfield's most coveted addresses, all just minutes from town, beaches, and country clubs.
Greenfield Hill, located between Fairfield Center and Easton, is a residential and pastoral Murray neighborhood with rolling farmland and winding stone-wall roads. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Greenfield Hill Green and the junction of Hillside Road and Bronson Road, where a quiet village-green atmosphere frames weekend strolls and seasonal gatherings. The Fairfield Country Day School campus and the Greenfield Hill Congregational Church anchor the area’s long-standing civic landscape. Large colonials and classic New England farmhouses sit back from the road behind mature trees, with horse properties and open fields shaping the views. A network of narrow lanes and wooded edges gives drives a tucked-away feel while keeping the setting distinctly Fairfield County. The pace reads as countryside-within-town, with daily life oriented around the green, schools, and scenic backroads.
