Privately nestled on a corner lot of a serene cul-de-sac abutting West Woods, this one-of-a-kind contemporary stuns with striking architecture, bold volume, and a flair for entertaining. Designed for those who crave beauty, light, and connection, the home offers 3,246 SF above grade plus a 1,280 SF finished lower level-an inspired canvas for art, music, and gatherings that flow seamlessly from indoors to out. A dramatic foyer opens to soaring ceilings and walls of custom glass, where sunlight dances across sculptural lines and lush gardens beyond. Every space tells a story-intimate nooks for quiet conversation balanced with expansive rooms meant for celebration. The chef's kitchen is a showpiece: African Sapele wood cabinetry, granite counters, double ovens, induction cooktop, and dual sinks create a space as functional as it is beautiful. A breakfast area opens to a two-tiered deck framed by the forest-perfect for candlelit dinners or Sunday brunch. Upstairs, two primary-suite options invite flexibility for hosting guests or creating private dual sanctuaries. The lower level extends the lifestyle with a recreation room, lounge, and laundry, served by dual staircases. Recent updates include a renovated powder room, four new split systems, EV charging, generator, and central vac. Minutes to the Guilford Green and a short drive from New Haven or NYC, this home is a true conversation piece of modern architecture-where creativity, comfort, and connection converge.
