Welcome to the South-of-the-YMCA neighborhood! Beautifully rebuilt in 2014, this custom Colonial sits on just over an acre of flat, park-like property in one of New Canaan's most coveted locations. Set near the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, it delivers luxury, privacy, and unbeatable convenience to top-rated schools, the YMCA, Waveny Park trails, paddle courts, the dog park, and every activity the park has to offer. Step inside and prepare to be wowed. The luxurious primary suite offers a spa-worthy bathroom and an enviable walk-in closet. Each additional bedroom includes its own en-suite bath and walk-in closet, and the legal 5th bedroom with bath and kitchenette on the lower level is perfect for guests, in-laws, or an au pair. High ceilings, 7-inch-wide oak floors, Porcelanosa tile, Grohe fixtures, and premium stonework make it feel exceptional. The chef's kitchen is a showstopper with its high-end appliances, a Wolf range with 6 burners, griddle, and double ovens, and custom Birchcraft cabinetry by Euphoria Kitchens. You'll enjoy more cabinet space than you ever thought possible. The fenced backyard feels like a private resort, complete with a heated in-ground pool, stone walls, mature landscaping, and an irrigation system. A 1,000-gallon underground propane tank powers heat, hot water, cooking, the full-house generator, and the pool heater - ensuring comfort year-round. The oversized 3-car garage offers 841 sq. ft. of clean, versatile space for cars, hobbies, or storage
