About this home

The opportunity to create a residence of lasting architectural significance begins with an extraordinary setting. On New Canaan's coveted West Side, conceptual plans envision a custom residence of approximately 6,000 to 8,000+ square feet, thoughtfully positioned within an offering of 4.91 acres bordering 42 acres of permanently protected land trust. Comprising two approved building lots at 230 West Road (2.34 acres) and 244 West Road (2.57 acres), the property offers the flexibility to consider a substantial private estate or two individually designed residences. The surrounding landscape, established estate properties, and proximity to New Canaan's village provide a compelling foundation for an ambitious architectural undertaking. The proposed renderings offer a glimpse of what might be achieved, while leaving the ultimate expression of the home to its future owner. From architectural style and spatial composition to the relationship between indoor and outdoor living, every element presents an opportunity for a distinctly personal interpretation. Residence shown is conceptual and has not been constructed. List price is for land only; construction costs are additional. Proposed design is subject to applicable approvals.

Some properties are defined as much by what surrounds them as by what can be built. On New Canaan's prestigious West Side, 230 and 244 West Road comprise two approved building lots totaling 4.91 acres (2.34 and 2.57 acres, respectively), bordering 42 acres of permanently protected land trust. The adjoining conservation acreage provides an enduring natural backdrop within an established landscape of significant estates, just minutes from the village. Offered together, the parcels present the possibility of creating an estate of considerable scale and distinction. Individually, each offers an exceptional setting for a custom residence. Conceptual architectural renderings illustrate one potential approach, featuring a residence of approximately 6,000 to 8,000+ square feet. Buyers may explore these concepts or pursue an entirely individual architectural direction. An offering distinguished by its setting, flexibility, and the freedom to define what comes next. List price reflects land only; home construction is not included.
