Five en-suite sun-filled bedrooms are seconds away accessible via front or back stairway. Downstairs, the walk out lower level has a spacious family room with a bar and abundant storage opening to a reflection pool and fields. The pool house resembles a cottage from a bygone era.

The grounds have been revitalized by Perry Guillott, with a deep appreciation for the original 1930s landscape architect's design ethos. This transformation includes expansive level lawns for play, stone terraces and a blend of both formal and whimsical gardens. Very few great estates of this quality and property size remain in Greenwich close to downtown, private schools and clubs. 36 Mayfair Lane provides a remarkably unique opportunity for contemporary living set amidst the ambiance of a countryside estate.
