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.

If you decide to book, know that we are thrilled to have you stay. :) Our goal is to treat our guests as though they are our friends, and we love to host guests who feel the same way. We like to know a little bit about our guests, so when you book we ask that you please tell us who will be staying and what brings you to the area. Don't hesitate to reach out with any and all questions. We are always happy to help. Thanks so much! :)

Tranquil Home with Beautiful Grounds - Close to Everything in Stamford!

We had a wonderful stay at this unique home in Connecticut! The house was very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The host was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which made the experience even smoother.We were in town for a wedding at the Roger Sherman Inn, and the location of the house was perfect, just a short drive away. It was an ideal place to stay with family, giving us space to relax and enjoy some quiet time together.The grounds of the property are absolutely beautiful. There's a peaceful pond in the back, and we saw deer and fireflies in the evenings.If I’m ever back in Stamford, this will definitely be my first choice again.

Spacious and relaxing

The house and grounds were perfect for a gathering of siblings and cousins from distant parts of the US. We had not seen each other in many years. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen and dining areas worked well for an extended-family lunch.

My kids love this house and didn't want to go.

If you have small children this is THE best house to rent. My 4 and 2 year olds love the huge playroom stocked with toys and I love all the kid extras bonus like the pack and play, kids toliet seats, highchair, stools, baby monitors Etc. My 4 year old wishes we could just come back every time we go on vacation! There was so much space for them to play inside the house, a great yard to run around and a swing set too. Deirdre is wonderful owner. She was always quick to respond to questions and help when needed. Thank you Deirdre for making our weekend away such a fabulous one!

This home has heart

It was such a pleasure spending the weekend in this delightful home. It could not have been more welcoming nor charming. Our family was quickly at ease in this wonderful family home. Every need was anticipated and provided for. The furniture helped make conversation and relaxation flow instantly. The linens were soft and beds cozy, temperature was easily controlled. (This weekend was like 3 seasons in one. The toiletries were top quality and the laundry was easily accessed. The property was a beautiful refuge complete with Blue Heron visits! If you are looking for a fun, comfortable and family friendly rental then look no further. Deirdre was always quick to respond to any questions and extremely clear in any communications. It is obvious that when you stay in her home, a piece of her heart is always with you!

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.

Excellent Accomodations

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.

Family Happiness

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.

Perfect Family Home

I cannot say enough good things about Deirdre's beautiful home and how grateful my family was to be able to stay here during our visit to Stamford. The house is perfect for a family with younger kids; they were so excited to have their very own play room! The rooms and bathrooms are well equipped with everything you might need, as was the kitchen. Deirdre in particular was so communicative and helpful with all of our questions. We very much hope to have an excuse to stay here again!

Beautiful, well-designed home with ample indoor and outdoor space

We loved our stay at Deirdre's home. It was extremely comfortable for the seven of us (3 kids and 4 adults). The baby nursery was well-equipped, which saved us a lot of hassle. The backyard was great for the kids and Deirdre provided a ton of toys for the kids to use back there. We were happy to be there during a beautiful autumn week, but I could imagine it being quite beautiful during a snowy, winter week as well. Deirdre was also very communicative and accomodating. We would happily return to this wonderful home.

Cute house, perfect for a family!

The house was so cute! It had everything you could need and more if you’re traveling with kids. Literally, everything. My kids LOVED the playroom and the tire swing. The location was great. Easy to get everywhere. The host was so great to work with. Check in and out were so simple. The downstairs of the home was so comfortable - the little pitch by the back deck was perfect for coffee and breakfast in the morning…it made you feel at home right away. The absolute only complaint was the master was SOOOO bright in the morning I had to get those temporary black out things on Amazon for the week. But it seems to be a common thing in rentals everywhere that there’s never black out shades or like curtains at all, just those paper thin shades. But, I would stay here again next summer without a doubt and hopefully for a longer period of time. Highly recommend the property. Thank you so much for a perfect start to our summer!
