Surrounded by stone walls, this one-of-a-kind, spectacular and private 36-acre Greenfield Hill country compound has had a stunning top-level transformation, creating a breathtaking Fairfield County estate like no other. The storied former home of Richard Rodgers, composer of The Sound of Music, the mid-century main residence was restored and expanded to incorporate 7 bedrooms and 7 full baths, all with views over the open, exquisitely landscaped property. Lofty ceilings and walls of glass create magical interior spaces. Libraries, play spaces, private wings, a hidden theater, and a stunning Moroccan lounge with bar are some of the special features of this extraordinary property. The full array of amenities includes a striking and sunny pool and chic barn-style pool house with full kitchen, bath and spacious gym. A beautifully updated separate stone farmhouse easily accommodates guests or staff. The charming separate office pavilion is tucked in a private garden area. In autumn pick apples at your own orchard and enjoy the lighted, heated paddle tennis court. Live in ultimate style and elegance at this private retreat just a quick commute to NYC, and with all that Fairfield and Westport have to offer in close proximity.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
