Property Description

Lot 53 is located at the end of Lee Lane, a private side street off Michigan Road. The 4-acre plot provides ample space for the creation of a single family home (septic study allows for at least five bedrooms), giving buyers the opportunity to design their dream home and avoid the hectic seller's market. The wooded surroundings offer a natural buffer from the outside world, fostering a sense of seclusion without sacrificing the convenience of being close to the amenities of New Canaan - a mere seven minutes to downtown and nine minuets from the train station. Whether you envision a charming cottage nestled among the trees or a contemporary home with large windows framing the natural beauty, this plot presents a canvas upon which you can paint your vision of an idyllic and tranquil living space.
