628 Rowland Road, Fairfield This voluptuous Shingle style home embraces its beachy roots by incorporating natural materials and a palette of sand, sea, smoke and sky. There is an air of elegance about this Coastal New England beauty, but it’s all sunshine and warmth at heart. Backed by several acres of conservation land, and only a block from Fairfield beach, the property feels like a quiet coastal sanctuary, just a ten minute walk from the premier dining and shopping of downtown Fairfield, CT.

Coastal Shingle Style
While the wood shingle and standing seam metal exterior of this house is classic coastal New England, the exceptional interior utilizes thoughtful, innovative design elements to create a comfortable, contemporary elegance.
Air + Light
The dazzling light inside the grand foyer draws you in. Bright whites promote a light, airy feeling throughout, complemented by the natural, solid beauty of marble, concrete, and river stone.
It All Happens Here
No matter how many rooms a home may have, everyone always ends up in the kitchen and the great room. This is the space at the heart of daily life – the room to do a bit of homework, catch up on your day – where friends and family gather to share in good company…and countless cups of coffee.
An Epicurean Heaven
The showstopper of this masterfully appointed kitchen is the exclamation-worthy, oversized island with seating for six. The included counter stools are as comfortable as they are chic. The matte concrete island top is a perfect culinary work surface. Meal preparation will be effortless with THE gold standard of cooking – a 48” Wolf gas range with dual ovens and pro hood – plus Sub-Zero refrigeration and Shaw’s apron front, fireclay sink. The crisp white-on-white custom cabinetry is accessorized with bold modern hardware, granite countertops, task lighting and sleek subway tiles. The elegant nickel pendants tie it all together. The undercounter beverage center completes this delicious space, and the two walk-in-pantries keep all your essentials close at hand.
Natural Warmth
Crucial ingredients for a “GREAT” room: warmth, loads of sunlight, a killer fireplace, some textural shiplap, stunning natural views, and a kick-ass entertainment system. *Kick-ass entertainment included (flat screen TV, in-ceiling speakers, Sonos system).
The Dish Room
The dining room has built-ins galore to house your oversized serving platters, both Grandmothers’ sets of china, and those rarely-used but oh-so-crucial holiday pieces that fit nowhere else. Plus room left over for the extra sets of cocktail glasses, champagne flutes, and all the other items Martha made you buy.
Work At Home In Style
A home office should be functional and professional, yet also personal and comfortable. With as much window as wall, this “corner office” strikes the perfect balance. The custom built-ins with hideaway TV provides a stylish and purposeful space, while the coffered ceiling and architectural mouldings add a touch of vibrant elegance.
And exhale…
The master suite is a well appointed haven where you can escape and recharge. The layout provides ultimate privacy. The fireplace is cozy, romantic and effortless (it’s gas). The 10+ft tray ceiling feels expansive. All this plus an enviable amount of closet space – dual walk-ins with substantial closet systems + double door linen.
Relaxation On Repeat
From the jetted tub with hand-spray to the full shower experience including a rain head + 3 body sprays + handheld + overhead + an endless supply of hot water (thanks to two new tankless hot water units) – we’ve got your hydrotherapy covered. The double vanity keeps all your lotions & potions neat and tidy. Dual closets off the bath make sneaking out for that 6am train without waking your spouse possible. You’re welcome, Honey Bunny.
