I only mention this pending Stamford listing because the agent goes out of her way to say it's in Greenwich
/The false attribution certainly didn’t deter at least one interested buyer, because 93 E Middle Patent Road, $1.650 million, is reported pending after just 17 days. I’m sure that, before any contracts were signed, the buyers, if they didn’t know it before, were alerted to the true location of the property, so no harm done.
And it’s easy to see why someone would want this house: 1760 construction, with much of it remaining, on 4.6-acres, which is not much remaining of the original parcel, but large enough.
Here’s the listing description:
Steeped in history and timeless New England character, this serene Greenwich retreat beautifully preserves the architectural integrity of an earlier era. Set along one of back-country Greenwich's most picturesque roads, this special property offers the rare opportunity to own a home rich in provenance, craftsmanship, and authentic period detail. Cozy fireplaces, detailed millwork, and beautifully designed rooms evoke a sense of history while expansive windows frame tranquil views of the surrounding landscape. A true Greenwich treasure, 93 E Middle Patent Road is where character, comfort, and calm converge.
In my original March 6th post, I discussed the history of how some Stamford properties ended up with Greenwich postal addresses over the past 300 years (spoiler alert: it was for the convenience of the postmasters responsible for delivering mail by horseback to the far northern borders of the respective towns).
