Lovely Easton Farmhouse
Erle is a wonderful host and the property manager was very responsive. We enjoyed being back in our "old neighborhood" and we liked the access to town and the main roadways. We enjoyed the historical nature of the home and the beautiful grounds.

Holiday escape
This old historical farmhouse was a perfect winter holiday experience for our family! The town of Westport was festive with great shops and restaurants in town center., being only a few miles out was the best country small town feel with horses and great hiking trails .

Peaceful Farmhouse
Peaceful home set on a beautiful tree lined property that boarders along a rushing stream. This is the best time of the year to enjoy this home with the fall foliage. We enjoyed the extensive book collection, art work, cozy kitchen, and great views of the property seen from every room. Property Manager was quick to respond to our needs. Enjoyed Silverman's farm and Norwalk Maritime Museum which is nearby. Would highly recommend the Perry House for a unique experience and relaxing stay.

wonderful stay
Very comfortable house in a simply gorgeous area of Connecticut. Huge trees and rushing streams at every turn. I loved cooking in this kitchen with its vintage Wolf stove. It's the best of both worlds here, with the pastoral scenery all around and close proximity to NYC. There are great groceries and take-out in nearby Fairfield, especially at Nordic Fish if you want high quality, fresh seafood to cook. Really appreciated, too, the caretaker who walked us through the house and patiently explained how everything worked -- very pleasant fellow. We were here for 9 nights and wished it had been for more. Drove into Manhattan twice, surprisingly easy and quick (1 hr 15-30 min) if you go at the right time. We also enjoyed hiking on nearby trails and just hanging out in the charming house, relaxing on the porch.

About the host

Host profile image
I am a Jack of all trades Master of All who came to this country as a student Ions ago. Originally an actress I segwayed into a couple of different carreers, but am now back to acting, writing and directing. Travelling a lot because of work I am open to share my little Shangri La with you!

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with this property because of the sense of history and warmth it excudes. I saw it the first time a late afternoon in November in pouring rain and knew the minute I walked in that my search was over. The very important aspect was the proximity to Manhattan where I was working at the time. I loved that I could walk out w/my coffee in my nightgown and in one hour and fifteen min be at my desk in Bloomingdale's advertizing!

What makes this property unique

The Aspetuck Corners was a gathering place for artists and intellectuals back in the twenties and Louis Pfeiffer (a wealthy industrialist from the city) who owned most of the properties at the time, restored and beautified the whole area. Hemingway who was married to his niece Pauline Pfeiffer (his second wife), is supposed to have finished 'A Farewell to Arms' in this house.
We are ten minutes from serious shopping and beaches in Westport as well as in Fairfield and there are public golf courses everywhere.
