Charlotte Wilbur is a New York City native now raising her four children in New Canaan. After six years in town, she has a nuanced understanding not only of New Canaan but of the distinctive features of the neighboring towns of Darien, Norwalk, Westport, Wilton and Ridgefield. With children who are or have been enrolled at several of New Canaan’s pre-schools and at both local private schools and New Canaan public school, Charlotte brings a family-focused approach and personal expertise to each client. As an award-winning interior designer, Charlotte owns and operates Crosby & Co, and thus is highly specialized in quickly recognizing a home’s potential, what improvements are feasible, and at what cost. Charlotte’s multi-faceted approach to finding and designing homes for her clients provides them with a 360-degree view of the process, both when it comes to preparing a house for sale and evaluating potential homes for purchase.
Charlotte attended The Chapin School in New York City, and received a BA in English Literature from Middlebury College, with highest honors. Charlotte’s business and project management background, with roles at Deutsche Asset Management and as Deputy Director of Concessions for the New York City Parks Department prior to establishing her interior design business, ensures that clients’ needs are taken care of in an organized, detail-oriented manner with a constant eye on their bottom line. Charlotte understands that for most people, buying and selling a house is not only financially the most significant transaction they will undertake, but for many intangible reasons is also the most fundamental part of establishing a life for oneself and one’s family.
Trust, discretion, and a solid understanding of what it is like to raise a family in Fairfield County combined with a highly trained and discerning eye for architecture and design set Charlotte apart. When she isn’t hard at work buying, selling and decorating her clients’ homes, Charlotte enjoys tennis, skiing, running, and traveling with her husband and four children. Two daughters, two sons, and two dogs keep her busy during her free time!
