760 Valley / Gravel Island Road, New Canaan, CT, 06840 | $1,950,000

Some homes are built. This 1931 Frazier Forman Peters masterpiece was sculpted from the earth. A true work of art, this hand-cut fieldstone residence is seamlessly embedded into its hillside perch, embodying strength, grace, and timeless craftsmanship. Architectural drama and elegance fill the interiors: soaring ceilings, a striking double staircase atrium, a stacked living and dining room, and five fireplaces infuse the home with character. French doors, four en-suite bedrooms, and a sweeping front terrace invite light and flow throughout. Restored with reverence, the home captures the romance of a bygone era, while offering every modern comfort. Set on over two acres, the property offers unmatched privacy and panoramic views. Tiered stone terraces and lush landscaping elevate the natural setting, creating a storybook retreat just minutes from downtown New Canaan. This is more than a home-it's a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history. (Listing Agent is Owner)
