Waterfront house with circular yard on sale for $15 million
GREENWICH — The waterfront home at 6 Windrose Way in Greenwich is unique for a number of reasons — one being that it has a circular yard.
Listed at $15,750,000, this 2009 home is set on a tidal inlet along the Mead Point waterfront. Walls of windows and multiple wood terraces take advantage of the water views throughout the home.
“If you want to live on the water and capture all the views, this is great,” said listing agent Joseph Barbieri, of Sotheby’s International Realty. “It was designed around the site.”
Designed by New York architect Constantin Wickenburg, the five-bedroom home’s 8,000 square feet are enhanced by another 4,000 square feet of terraces and a two-acre park-like setting with 230 feet of water frontage, an inground swimming pool and a private launch for kayaks, canoes and paddle boards. The home is adjacent to a 5.5-acre park with a pond and a deep-water dock available only to Windrose Way residents. There is also 24-hour gated security.
Inside, there is an elevator, and Austrian wideplanked radiant heat oak floors are found in the living and dining rooms on the main floor. The garden level features a symmetrical butterfly staircase leading to a light-filled double-height lower level with a large fireplace. French doors open to the patio and pool and one wing contains an en suite guest room and office.
The opposite wing offers a changing room and full bath for pool guests, a mudroom, banks of walk-in closets and storage space. Staff quarters and access to the heated, oversized twocar garage are also found here. The residence was built to commercial standard with steel construction and a zinc roof.
