beauty, history, and lifestyle

Welcome to Mead Farm, an extraordinary Greenwich estate that seamlessly blends historic character with modern luxury. Set on nearly 6 acres in the heart of the Stanwich Historic District, this landmark residence offers 9,189 sq. ft. of living space, including 6 bedrooms, 6 full and 2 half baths.

Originally built in 1846 and listed on the Greenwich Landmarks Registry as the Elkanah Mead House, the property is one of the few surviving mid-19th-century farmhouses in the area—rich in history yet thoughtfully reimagined for today’s lifestyle. Award-winning landscaping by James Doyle and interior design by Thom Filicia elevate the property to a rare level of refinement, harmonizing timeless design with today’s lifestyle.

The home’s architecture retains its classic charm with a sweeping wraparound porch, wide-plank floors, copper gutters, and multiple fireplaces, while recent updates provide comfort and convenience.

A gracious entry hall leads to elegant living and dining rooms, a handsome library with fireplace and bar, and a family room wrapped in character details. The gourmet eat in kitchen is a showpiece, featuring an AGA stove, dual ovens, island, pantry, and three sets of French doors opening to the grounds.

Unique to the property is the fully rebuilt water tower, which connects to the main residence, allowing a gym, wine room, full bath, and a dramatic double-height office with walls of windows—an inspired retreat for work or play.

Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite includes a spacious dressing room, spa-like bath with soaking tub and dual sinks, custom built-ins, and multiple closets.

All bathrooms are fresh and timeless, and the wood roof and major systems are recently updated.
