Our Take
230 White Oak Shade Road in New Canaan is a 2011 post-and-beam modern barn with a one-bedroom, one-bath loft-like interior. High ceilings and abundant natural light complement a great room, office area, full kitchen with high-end appliances, and laundry. Outside, a stone patio and pergola lead to a private tennis court that converts to an ice rink in winter. The 1.24-acre lot is landscaped and open, with two additional barns and potential for expanding the existing structure or building a new home.
