For those who covet the tranquility of private, verdant realms, Greenwich’s pastoral expanses endorse an ambrosial retreat—a modern colonial manor named Le Plaisance. This sumptuous new entrant in the luxury market, cradled by four acres of Connecticut’s Gold Coast majesty, is offered for $17.49 million—a mirror to the affluence of one of the state’s premier locales. Ryan Serhant and Jesse Marinak of Serhant proudly offer stewardship of this listing.
Le Plaisance emerges as a paragon of bespoke splendor, a freshly-minted haven where luxury finds sanctuary in the details—soundproofing, superior drainage systems, and more, fashioned with an artisan’s precision, Marinak imparts to Robb Report. Erected in 2021, this four-tiered fortress spans 17,408 square feet of elegant living space, presenting seven bedrooms, eight full bathrooms, and four powder rooms. It welcomes new owners furnished, or to be adorned with artifacts of their own curation.
The residence reveals itself behind a serpentine driveway, flanked by a robust gated entrance. Its imposing frontage gives way to a lofty foyer, crowned by an atrium 26 feet high, marked by dual spiral staircases and Italian marble underfoot. Spaces designed for repose and conviviality abound, from the formal living room and commodious lounge with its stately fireside and coffered canopy, to the sonorous piano room aglow with a cristallo quartzite reverie, and a light-bathed great room.
Culinary aspirations take root in a premier kitchen, boasting a 15-foot, Bogwood-bottomed island, surrounded by Thermador masterpieces and a dedicated butler’s pantry, with an adjoining breakfast sanctuary. The second level is home to the stately primary suite—complete with a vast bedroom, and an en suite bathroom featuring a soaking tub and dual steam showers. The suite with a fireplace and secluded balcony is joined by four en suite accompaniments.
Ascend still, to discover an opulent, wood-floored ballroom that crowns the third floor. The roots of the residence harbor a rich array of leisurely pursuits—from a home theater and billiard’s alcove to a sanctuary for wines, an exercise shrine, and an extensive catering kitchen—complemented by an in-law suite. An elevator services each of the residence’s elevations.
Externally, stone terraces and shaded porches encircle the abode, segueing to a 50-foot heated pool, a hot tub, and a pavilion equipped with kitchens both sotto cielo and sheltered, complete with full bath amenities and separate laundry. The expansive grounds offer the potential for further recreation with enough space to accommodate a tennis and a pickleball court, fulfilling every facet of indulgent leisure.
