About this property
Bright Stylish Chic 4BR 4BA Home Pet Friendly!
Welcome to this light, bright, spacious home, perfect for families and groups. Built in 1869 and updated with a light-filled sunroom with woodburning stove, large playroom stocked with toys, and a huge primary suite and bath. With over 3,800 square feet, it has 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 with tubs. Plenty of space for groups to gather, and also for someone to find a quiet spot to retreat. 1 hour from NYC, close to downtown Stamford, and Greenwich CT shops and beaches.
CHECK IN TIME: 4 PM CHECK OUT TIME: 10 AM
The huge backyard provides a lovely view with a towering oak tree and a rolling lawn. At the far end of the yard is a pond and stone patio. In the spring and summer there are frogs in the pond, and the occasional turtle.
The playroom is large, sunny, and stocked with toys that kids are welcome to play with. Our outdoor swingset / playset accommodates small children - best for children 10 and under.
We have a binder in the house that is full of detailed info about the house, wireless access, garbage pickup, the area, shopping, activities, restaurants, recreation, etc. We are very easy to contact via text or phone with any questions at all you have during your stay -- no matter how small.
The neighborhood is bucolic and rural. There's a horse farm nearby, down a winding road. The forested Mianus River Park, with its lovely hiking trails that run alongside the river, is a 3-minute drive from the house, great for jogging, hiking, mountain-biking or walking the dogs (or kids!). The house has easy access to the Merritt parkway (Route 15) so getting into NYC or to nearby Greenwich, CT is easy. Shopping on trendy Greenwich Ave. (Saks, Tiffany, J. Crew, etc.) is 15-20 minutes away. Stamford train station is about 15-20 minutes from the house, and has many trains running into New York's Grand Central station, a 1-hour train ride away.
The house has central air conditioning and heat.

The home feels welcoming and thoughtfully put together, with personal touches that create a relaxed, comfortable vibe. It’s bright and spacious with plenty of natural light, and was very clean throughout. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the outdoor space is nicely designed for both relaxing and spending time outside. Would definitely stay here again!
We stayed at this beautiful home to be nearby for our daughter's wedding. It was well-situated and had so much space inside and outside. The host could not have been more welcoming and available and considerate of our needs. While we used it as a base of operations, I think it would be wonderful for a family get-together of any kind. You could hang out there, cook big meals and feel we cared for. Lots of common space on the main floor and lovely bedrooms and baths upstairs. We loved our time there and highly recommend it for a family gathering.
Very clean, fully stocked with all the necessities, plenty of space. The hostess definitely put a lot of thought, time/effort to ensure the renters do not need anything and have plenty of stuff to stay entertained and busy during raining days. Definitely a rebook without hesitation. The family love your home, thank you for sharing it with us.
My family and I absolutely loved this property! Very spacious and comfortable and yard and play space for the kids was such a bonus. Dierdre was wonderful and stayed checked in with us to make sure we didn't need anything. Highly recommend a stay here.
This was our third stay here. That should say it all! Deirdre’s home is the perfect home away from home. Her home is so comfort. As soon as you walk in the door, you will know you made the right decision. Everything you could need from a rental home is here, and more. Deirdre is always available if you need to communicate with her for any reason. Set away from the town center, so you have quiet and peace…but close enough to town if you need groceries, shopping, dining, medical care, banking, etc…
This house was perfect for our family to celebrate our son’s wedding. The house is beautiful, spacious, and had everything we needed. We definitely will stay here again when back in Stamford!
Wow. We can't recommend the house highly enough. It was spacious, clean, full of light, lots of places to sit inside and outside, lots and lots of toys and activities for kids. The library was reason enough for a visit. Beautiful house, beautiful grounds. Large dining room, lots of bathrooms. We had a great experience and would love to visit again.
Conveniently located but yet still very private. Owners have thought of every amenity needed !
Owners opened their beautiful home that was a delightful combination of an old home that had been modernized offering many unique features but was both welcoming and comfortable.
Loved the quietness of the area and the wooded areas for long walks with the dog.

Property was absolutely lovely, lots of space for a family get to gather. It was warm and well stocked. The back yard with the pond was a bonus. We are certainly planning on going back.
We couldn’t have been happier. The property manager, Deidre was great at communicating. Everything was the way she told us to expect. She always was quick to respond with an answer to any of our questions. We had a family group of nine and everyone loved the house. The house had a lot of character, it was big enough that we didn’t feel cramped, but it was also cozy. We would stay here again in a heartbeat if we are in the area again.
Lovely pond outside and lots of toys and things for families to do. Kitchen was well stocked with pots and pans and utensils which made it easy to make meals. House was warm when it was chilly outside, so we enjoyed snuggling!
House is absolutely perfect! This is our second time staying and we will definitely return. So much charm and warmth. I had the best sleep that I have had in months. All the amenities you could ask for, and more. Terrific convenient location. Host goes above and beyond to make sure we are comfortable.
Wonderful property conveniently located with easy access to Stamford and Greenwich. House was so clean and had everything we needed from dishes to towels. Deirdre was so helpful and provided us with a list of local restaurants including their favorites. Great stay, would recommend!
I was traveling for a family wedding where I was staying home with the grandkids while my adult kids went off to enjoy. This house was perfect. Lots of space, so comfortable, and we had everything...I mean everything we needed to just roll in and be happy with two little kids. Toys, pack and plays, comfy beds and more. Do not hesitate to book this place for a multi-generational stay.
Charming back-country Stamford home in a residential neighborhood with convenient access to local area. Diedre, our host, was thoughtful and welcoming. We would happily return!
This house has everything a family could need on vacation: plenty of beds, a big yard, and toys for children of all ages. It is about 15 minutes from downtown Stamford and a little further from Greenwich, with a large number of restaurants and parks nearby. It is also convenient to get to the train to New York. We will definitely consider coming back here!
