Welcome to Thyme Meadow! For the first time in 28 years, this is a special opportunity to own a handsome English Cotswold style manor and pool house gracefully placed on 7.5 sprawling acres. Imagine the horses and sheep that once roamed here as you wind up the driveway from the 147 Briscoe Road entrance. Or be delighted by the formal gardens as you arrive from the 49 Cross Ridge Road entrance. Thoughtful, mature landscaping graces every corner of this 7.5 acre estate, equipped with a tennis court and koi pond. The main house offers three oversized entertaining areas. The 31.5 by 28 foot formal living room soars with coffered ceilings and one of six fireplaces. The quaint dining room channels a historic feel. While the sun drenched kitchen and family room shine with painted frescos and vaulted ceilings. A 700 wine bottle room is close at hand while manicured gardens sit just outside a wall of sliding glass doors. The handsome recreation room complete with a wall of windows and vintage moose head easily lends itself to a games of billiards next to the wood burning stove. The unique L shaped floor plan offers a hub of entertaining spaces with two separate wings for sleeping and productivity that includes six bedrooms, three home offices and a three-car garage.

A quintessential New England suburb with a charming downtown, sense of community and plenty of cultural activities, New Canaan is an easy train ride away from New York City. The sophisticated Lower Fairfield County community was home to the “Harvard Five” in the 1940s, five visionary architects who used New Canaan as their experimental playground for their mid-century modern designs, building more than 80 homes here.
