THE BEDFORD HOUSE - Architecturally and historically significant estate in coveted Greens Farms. This exceptional property offers a rare opportunity to own one of Westport's most superb homes. Set on 2.33 acres with a gunite pool/spa, court and a 2400 sq ft barn featuring a 3-car garage, loft & more, the estate blends timeless elegance with modern comfort. Originally built in 1904 and designed by noted architects Visscher and Burley, this Colonial Revival home has undergone thoughtful renovations over the years to preserve and enhance its character. The main residence features 5 Bedrooms and 6.5 Baths with a well-planned layout for today's lifestyle. High ceilings, oversized windows, finely detailed millwork and sun-filled rooms create a sense of warmth and sophistication. Recent improvements include a new cedar wood roof on both the house & barn, a like-new pool, spa & mechanicals, refinished hardwood floors, updated HVAC and new appliances. A unique highlight of this estate is its location across from Nyala Farms, offering scenic views of over 50 acres of protected meadows and fields with a deed that prevents further development. A rare opportunity to continue the legacy of this historic property. Enjoy the ultimate lifestyle, minutes to the train, beaches, schools, shops and fine dining. Noteworthy Historic Information: Colonial Revival reflective of the finest quality work of the period and significant for today. The barn dates back to the 1850's when the property was part of the original Jennings Homestead. Commissioned by E.T. Bedford, brilliant businessman, visionary and philanthropist extraordinaire. Ruth Bedford purchased the home and relocated from NY in 1950, thereafter known for her delightful nature and local generosity. Architectural details include a conical tower with a Palladian window sheltered by a Tuscan-columned porch with a bell cast roof.
