This was once the home of Milton H Greene, a New York based fashion & celebrity photographer, who photographed Marilyn Monroe at this very home which she visited often. This home sits on 2.36 acres of picturesque Aspetuck riverfront property. Additionally, this unique home, is being offered along with a 2.9 acre piece of land directly across the river at 18 Hunts Lane in the town of Weston CT, priced at $675,000. This unspoiled land of Weston is under dual ownership & is conjoined by a waterfall uniquely & also under same ownership. The original purpose of the purchase of the 2 properties was to create a beautiful & rare compound of riverfront privacy. The river is also an incredible & refreshing place to swim. The two properties can be conjoined by an approved foot bridge for easy access to & from both sides. The wooded Weston side is indeed buildable or can be left unspoiled for its natural forest view. 261 Westport Turnpike Fairfield features 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, hardwood floors & spectacular double sided wood burning fireplace. The home is filled with history, charm and it is flooded with natural sunlight. Relax in this home with park like views, serene atmosphere, yet a 12-minute drive to the town of Westport or Fairfield. Additionally, it is only 55 miles away from Manhattan. This home and property is truly one of a kind.
