Set across from the links of the water-facing Country Club of Fairfield is a 2.5-acre estate for sale.
The brick veneer-clad mansion with Italian limestone detailing was inspired by the grand country estates of English architect Sir Edwin Landseer Lutyens. The creation of architect Roger Ferris, the home was completed in 1993 and renovated in 2007.
The six levels of living space take in views of Southport Harbor, Long Island Sound and the Manhattan skyline. A limestone portico marks the entrance to the 17,735-square-foot mansion’s main level.
A two-story foyer with a marmalade-and-white marble floor and a sweeping wrought-iron staircase opens to the living room, a library, the family room, an eat-in kitchen and the formal dining room. Details include floor-to-ceiling windows, crown molding and French doors.
Among the 10 bedrooms is a 3,600-square-foot primary suite with a sitting room, a fireplace and dual bathrooms, dressing areas and private studies. The upper floor suite can be accessed by stairs or by elevator.
Beneath the main level is a floor with a kitchenette, an elaborate bath complex, a sauna, an exercise room, an office and a wine cellar. Below that is an indoor sports facility including a squash/basketball court and a dance studio.
The lowest level of the home contains a 75-foot-long Italian marble-lined indoor pool with a glass skylight roof. There’s also an outdoor heated pool with a spa.
The 2,000-square-foot two-story guest house has a living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a two-car garage.
Rose gardens, expanses of lawn, apple trees and rhododendrons fill the grounds, which serve as a setting for the oval-shaped swimming pool, a fish pond and a children’s playground.
