DUNNELLEN HALL Crowning one of the highest points in Fairfield County with distant views of Long Island Sound, Dunnellen Hall is possibly the most celebrated of “The Great Estates” in Greenwich. Approached through stately iron gates framed by tall stone walls, the glorious backcountry setting affords exceptional luxury, comfort, privacy and security amid forty acres of spectacular countryside punctuated by sculptured gardens, a 75-foot outdoor pool with pool house, a tennis court and beautiful koi pond with three waterfalls. An elegant walled courtyard with a marble reflecting pool and tiered fountain fronts the palatial 1918 Jacobean manor, an architectural tour-de-force designed by eminent New York architect, William Tubby. A stunning reception hall and 86foot gallery, both with limestone walls, travertine marble flooring and intricate tracery ceilings softly illuminated by cove lighting, introduces the exquisitely detailed 28-room interior. A vaulted stone archway beyond a regal staircase includes triple French doors to an expansive terrace bordered by a stone balustrade. Sublime formal rooms, all with 12-foot tracery ceilings, include a majestic teak floored, three-exposure living room with imposing limestone fireplace and leaded French doors to a loggia, a paneled banquet-size dining room with carved marble fireplace and richly mellowed oak library with an 15th century limestone fireplace. There is a family room with marble fireplace and full bar, a casual breakfast room and spacious kitchen wing with butler’s pantry, silver vault and service areas. A glassed solarium opening to the terrace adjoins an extraordinary marbled natatorium with 50-foot pool and changing room. Gracious, comfortably-scaled family quarters balance the grandeur of formal spaces. A sumptuous master suite comprises the entire south wing. For the gentleman, there is a handsome study with marble fireplace, bath, coffee bar and customfitted walk-in closet. The lady’s dressing room, walled with wardrobe and accessory closets, adjoins a marble bath. An opulent his/her bath finished in onyx serves the three-exposure bedroom chamber with antique French fireplace and breathtaking views. Four of five additional second floor bedrooms, one with marble fireplace, include en suite baths. Third floor includes recreation/exercise room, two bedrooms, one bath. Four powder rooms, a charming wine cellar/ tasting room and a six-bedroom, two-bath staff wing complete the layout. Separate garaging for six cars, caretaker and guest cottages.
