Spacious but cold

It was a very nice property with wildlife so regular we joked about them being paid actors, in a nice walkable neighborhood. If it had been a bit warmer inside, it would have been perfect (we visited early February, but not during a blizzard)! Hosts were fairly prompt when contacted, and very gracious.

Perfect Rental for our Short Term Needs

The host is super responsive from the initial booking inquiry right through to check out. Responded to all contact within2 hours max. Home is really clean, very and functional and has several luxury features (master bath!). Great natural light from the many skylights. We stayed in winter and I bet the property is even more spectacular in warmer months with the pond, fountain and hot tub out back. Neighborhood is serene, yet you are no more than 5 minutes from great shopping, restaurants, public transportation to NYC. Will say the property has a few quirks like layout, but nothing that detracts from your stay. Would definitely stay again.

Great place!

Great host. The house is peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by nature. Next time I travel to Connecticut, I'll search for this place.

About the host

Hosted by Gustavo

We bought this house to be our primary residence but we moved to Florida.

Why they chose this property

This is an astonishing house! We fall in love with it at first sight. The house is in a private lane with beautiful houses. It has a modernist architecture overseeing a private pond. The master bathroom has been fully renovated in 2019 including eletronic showes and japonese toilet, not to mention heated floor.
