Garrison Colonial

Set on a level one-acre lot in New Canaan, South Avenue is a classic Garrison colonial reimagined for modern living. The white clapboard residence pairs timeless New England detailing, louvered shutters, a deep covered front porch with a standing-seam metal roof, a natural-wood front door, and a stone chimney with a relaxed, light-filled interior. At roughly 4,178 square feet of main house living space, the home offers a new primary en suite with dual offices, a family room, a sunroom, a mudroom, and a finished lower level with a wellness/sauna room. A vaulted, beamed four-seasons room with a floor to ceiling stone fireplace opens directly onto the rear grounds, where a covered porch, outdoor kitchen, patio, pool, and hot tub create a full resort-style outdoor living environment. A new three-car garage anchors the main house, while a detached carriage house with a two-car garage below and finished second-floor space above; adds flexible room for guests, a studio, or a home gym. Built on a cast-in-place concrete foundation and framed in engineered wood beneath cedar shingle and metal roofs, South Avenue blends heritage architecture with the amenities of a contemporary luxury home.
