Welcome to 1 Tulip Tree Lane, where artistic history, modern luxury, and resort-style living come together. Designed and once owned by renowned American illustrator Edwin Georgi, this distinctive 4-bed, 4-bath home sits on 1.24 acres on a cul-de-sac abutting Cranbury Park. Completely remodeled throughout, the home offers a memorable blend of character and comfort. The heated saltwater pool is enclosed within a heated solarium with a retractable roof, creating an exceptional year-round indoor-outdoor experience. The lower level includes a sauna and walk-out access to a rear deck and yard, while the main level offers seamless access to a sundeck, the main deck, and back/side yard. The brand-new kitchen is ideal for everyday living and entertaining, with easy flow to numerous memorable spaces. Step onto the main deck for summer meals, gather in the striking Great Room where exposed natural wood beams add warmth and vintage charm, or host in the home's original dining room below, complete with its own fireplace and sliding glass door leading to a newly built stone patio. Upstairs, find the private primary suite with its own balcony, two closets, including one walk-in, and a beautifully updated bath. Refinished wide-plank hardwood floors, new recessed lighting, and carefully chosen finishes enhance the home's timeless appeal. Outside, the expansive yard provides privacy, space, and a stunning natural backdrop. Historic, stylish, and truly one of a kind. Agent/Owner.

Interpretation note: A dense sequence can suggest coordinated work, but permit issue dates do not establish completion and separate town records are not automatically combined.
How we compile this. The source is Norwalk municipal permit records. These records are imported periodically and are not a live feed from the town. A permit’s presence does not, by itself, confirm that work was completed or passed final inspection. Dates shown are issue dates unless identified otherwise. Descriptions may be lightly edited for readability without changing material details. Dollar amounts are town-reported project costs or permit valuations, not estimates of the property’s market value.
