About this property

Bright Stylish Chic 4BR 4BA Home Pet Friendly!

Welcome to this light, bright, spacious home, perfect for families and groups. Built in 1869 and updated with a light-filled sunroom with woodburning stove, large playroom stocked with toys, and a huge primary suite and bath. With over 3,800 square feet, it has 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 with tubs. Plenty of space for groups to gather, and also for someone to find a quiet spot to retreat. 1 hour from NYC, close to downtown Stamford, and Greenwich CT shops and beaches.

CHECK IN TIME: 4 PM
CHECK OUT TIME: 10 AM

The huge backyard provides a lovely view with a towering oak tree and a rolling lawn. At the far end of the yard is a pond and stone patio. In the spring and summer there are frogs in the pond, and the occasional turtle.

The playroom is large, sunny, and stocked with toys that kids are welcome to play with. Our outdoor swingset / playset accommodates small children - best for children 10 and under.

We have a binder in the house that is full of detailed info about the house, wireless access, garbage pickup, the area, shopping, activities, restaurants, recreation, etc. We are very easy to contact via text or phone with any questions at all you have during your stay -- no matter how small.

The neighborhood is bucolic and rural. There's a horse farm nearby, down a winding road. The forested Mianus River Park, with its lovely hiking trails that run alongside the river, is a 3-minute drive from the house, great for jogging, hiking, mountain-biking or walking the dogs (or kids!). The house has easy access to the Merritt parkway (Route 15) so getting into NYC or to nearby Greenwich, CT is easy. Shopping on trendy Greenwich Ave. (Saks, Tiffany, J. Crew, etc.) is 15-20 minutes away. Stamford train station is about 15-20 minutes from the house, and has many trains running into New York's Grand Central station, a 1-hour train ride away.

The house has central air conditioning and heat.

Don't hesitate to reach out with questions! Thanks! :)

Second time staying at listing
House is absolutely perfect! This is our second time staying and we will definitely return. So much charm and warmth. I had the best sleep that I have had in months. All the amenities you could ask for, and more. Terrific convenient location. Host goes above and beyond to make sure we are comfortable.

Perfect Family Home
I cannot say enough good things about Deirdre's beautiful home and how grateful my family was to be able to stay here during our visit to Stamford. The house is perfect for a family with younger kids; they were so excited to have their very own play room! The rooms and bathrooms are well equipped with everything you might need, as was the kitchen. Deirdre in particular was so communicative and helpful with all of our questions. We very much hope to have an excuse to stay here again!

Beautiful, well-designed home with ample indoor and outdoor space
We loved our stay at Deirdre's home. It was extremely comfortable for the seven of us (3 kids and 4 adults). The baby nursery was well-equipped, which saved us a lot of hassle. The backyard was great for the kids and Deirdre provided a ton of toys for the kids to use back there. We were happy to be there during a beautiful autumn week, but I could imagine it being quite beautiful during a snowy, winter week as well. Deirdre was also very communicative and accomodating. We would happily return to this wonderful home.

Cute house, perfect for a family!
The house was so cute! It had everything you could need and more if you’re traveling with kids. Literally, everything. My kids LOVED the playroom and the tire swing. The location was great. Easy to get everywhere. The host was so great to work with. Check in and out were so simple. The downstairs of the home was so comfortable - the little pitch by the back deck was perfect for coffee and breakfast in the morning…it made you feel at home right away. The absolute only complaint was the master was SOOOO bright in the morning I had to get those temporary black out things on Amazon for the week. But it seems to be a common thing in rentals everywhere that there’s never black out shades or like curtains at all, just those paper thin shades. But, I would stay here again next summer without a doubt and hopefully for a longer period of time. Highly recommend the property. Thank you so much for a perfect start to our summer!

Wonderful weekend getaway for kids
We loved our weekend stay and this house is THE BEST if you have young kids! Incredible playroom with lots of toys, big backyard with swings, high chair for the little ones, the works! Also great back deck looking over the yard and a cool sitting room for cocktails while listening to records. Terrific home in a great location on a quiet road. The host checked in with us directly to ensure we had everything we needed. Loved it.

Conveniently located but yet still very private. Owners have thought of every amenity needed !
Owners opened their beautiful home that was a delightful combination of an old home that had been modernized offering many unique features but was both welcoming and comfortable.

The house and grounds were perfect for a gathering of siblings and cousins from distant parts of the US. We had not seen each other in many years. The beds were comfortable, and the kitchen and dining areas worked well for an extended-family lunch.

This home has heart
It was such a pleasure spending the weekend in this delightful home. It could not have been more welcoming nor charming. Our family was quickly at ease in this wonderful family home. Every need was anticipated and provided for. The furniture helped make conversation and relaxation flow instantly. The linens were soft and beds cozy, temperature was easily controlled. (This weekend was like 3 seasons in one. The toiletries were top quality and the laundry was easily accessed. The property was a beautiful refuge complete with Blue Heron visits! If you are looking for a fun, comfortable and family friendly rental then look no further. Deirdre was always quick to respond to any questions and extremely clear in any communications. It is obvious that when you stay in her home, a piece of her heart is always with you!

Great Family Vacation
This house has everything a family could need on vacation: plenty of beds, a big yard, and toys for children of all ages. It is about 15 minutes from downtown Stamford and a little further from Greenwich, with a large number of restaurants and parks nearby. It is also convenient to get to the train to New York. We will definitely consider coming back here!

Wonderful Wedding Weekend
Everyone in our property really enjoyed our stay at the property. The host was so helpful during our search for property. We were looking for a home that would accommodate our large family traveling from Omaha to attend our son & daughter-in-laws wedding. She was very prompt and through with every question that we asked before making the reservation. She contacted us promptly one week before our arrival with information about the very easy check-in process. Again, she answered all our questions. She was a pleasure to work with. The property was beautiful and just as described....we found no surprises or disappointments. The place was very nicely decorated and had everything that we looked for (kitchen very well stocked as well as extra bedding). Since we had 5 small children with us, the host was accommodating in letting us stay in the 4 bedroom/4 bath home (which is rare to find in this area). There were bedrooms and baths for each of the couples and plenty of room for the kiddos to spread out on floors on inflatable mattresses. The kids loved the toy room and all the books! (and so did the parents). I personally loved the original flooring and history of the house and the personal touches throughout the home. Our only disappointment was that it rained all weekend so we could not take advantage of the spacious yard and outdoor toys. A great weekend for our family and the house was perfect and the host made us feel welcome. Thank you for making the Pulverenti wedding memorable and stressfree. (I rated location a 4 as there is nothing directly around the house to quickly restock or pickup. So come prepared with your food/drink/takeout etc. But, as we drove through the area I think this is common for all neighborhoods in the area)
