Our Take

137 Old Kings Highway is a 2007 colonial with four finished floors and four bedrooms with ensuite baths. The main level centers on a chef’s kitchen open to a family room with west-facing windows and one of four fireplaces, while a private office sits nearby. A third-floor rec room has soaring ceilings and could be converted into a fifth bedroom suite. The lower level includes a gym and media room, opening to landscaped grounds with bluestone patios, an outdoor kitchen, and a firepit.

Read the full listing description

Bright and inviting, this impeccably constructed and maintained colonial is richly detailed over four finished floors. Chic and stylish throughout, with a thoughtful floor plan, you are greeted by a gracious generous foyer that leads to the heart of the house, a chef's kitchen open to the family room which is bathed in light by west-facing windows and warmed by one of the four fireplaces. Right around the corner is a central, yet private, office with pocket doors. Up the wide and welcoming stairs you arrive at a spectacular landing that's a destination of its own, with space to lounge or study. It leads to four ensuite bedrooms, one of which is a magnificent primary suite with dressing room and recently renovated bath with shower room and tub. On the third floor is a large finished rec room with soaring ceilings that can be converted into a fifth bedroom suite. The lower level gym and media room leads out to professionally landscaped grounds with extensive bluestone patios and an outdoor kitchen for evening entertainment in front of the firepit. This triple mint home is ready to live, work and play. It's also close to the schools, train, Waveny Park and a short drive to New Canaan's coveted village.
