Mid-century Stunner
Mid-Century Modern stunner in North Stamford with walls of windows and a flowing floor plan opening up all the interior spaces and bringing the outdoors in. This home features soaring ceilings, original mid century wood paneling, and spacious split-levels. In this 4,700+ square foot space, with four bedrooms and three and a half baths, you will find many more original details still in place. The living areas appear to bleed into one another, thanks to a unique multi level design. The walls of glass and floor-to-ceiling windows in almost every room, brighten interior spaces promoting an open flow and verdant views. Other period details include gleaming original terrazzo floors, sloped beamed ceilings and two large brick hearths. In the living room there is a hand forged, hammered copper bar and an oversized fireplace clad with impressive copper sheet detail that anchors the room. Another hidden bar flanks the second dining area and an original, grand mid-century stained glass window in the living room creates a warm glow as the sun shines through. There is a large screened in patio at the back of the house just off of the family room. Other amenities include a 500 square foot professional artist studio. There is a sliding door that opens onto the second floor deck offering happy views of the surrounding forest and giving much inspiration for artistic endeavors. Living at 165 Wellington Drive one feels very far away from the hustle and bustle of New York City and the world…yet you are only 10 minutes from exciting downtown Stamford with its fabulous restaurants, shopping, nightlife, commerce and culture and a 50 minute train ride from Manhattan. This is a very special family home and also a great escape/retreat from New York City.
