Set on 6.38 acres in the prestigious gated community of Belle Haven, 30 Field Point Drive in Greenwich, CT is an 18,000-square-foot Georgian Colonial mansion that has had just two owners in its 125-year history. The property is currently on the market for $30,000,000 (as of 1/28/2025).
Property History and Features
The estate was originally designed by architect Wilson Eyre, recognized for his work in shingle-style homes. In 1991, Westport-based Roger Ferris oversaw a significant expansion, nearly doubling the home’s size. The property now includes a main house, guest house, and caretaker’s cottage, offering 11 bedrooms, nine full bathrooms, and two half-baths.
The main house features a grand center hall, 10 wood-burning fireplaces, and a columned terrace overlooking the grounds. A brick-walled entry courtyard leads to the front door. The second-floor master suite includes a private living room, office, wet bar, and dual walk-in closets. An elevator provides access to all levels of the home.
One of the home’s most notable features is its library, which includes a doorway and fireplace surround sourced from London’s Grosvenor House. Designed for Marjorie Wiggins Prescott, daughter of Chase National Bank president Albert Wiggin, the library once housed her rare book collection. After her death in 1981, the collection was auctioned for $1.3 million, an enormous sum at the time, and included a first-edition copy of The Raven and Other Poems by Edgar Allan Poe and Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest.
Belle Haven Community
The property offers easy access to the Belle Haven Club’s private beach, tennis courts, and a swimming pool. These nearby amenities allow the estate to preserve its open grounds while providing recreational opportunities for residents.
