$14.75 million equestrian farm for sale in Greenwich
GREENWICH — The clip-clop of hooves and an occasional whinny are familiar sounds at Steeple Chase Farm, an equestrian oasis in backcountry Greenwich.
Custom-built on nearly 13 acres at 429 Taconic Road, this boutique horse farm is one of the few in town with an indoor riding ring, said listing agent Sally Slater of Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
“That means you can ride all year long,” she said. “It’s a fully equipped equestrian property and everything is in perfect shape.”
Listed at $14.75 million, the 10,000-square-foot residence has state-of-the-art stables and an in-ground pool. In addition to the grass paddocks and indoor ring, the equestrian facilities include an 8-stall barn with tack room and hayloft, outdoor riding rings, a separate garage building with a twobedroom staff apartment and private trails around the perimeter of the landscaped property with vegetable and cutting gardens and an orchard.
