It couldn't sell at $2.095 million in 2022, but that was 2022

320 Valley Road, Cos Cob, asking $2.595 million, has a contract. Thanks to global warming and the end of temperatures that ever fall below freezing, there will be no problem climbing the steep shared driveway to this alpine masterpiece; otherwise, it might give me pause.
Vertical living at its finest, the realtor’s purple prose makes me look forward to AI technology taking over the task of describing real estate; that day can’t cone soon enough.
This impeccably maintained residence, crafted with stone and shingle, graces a spacious .28-acre parcel, offering over 4,300 square feet of opulent living. The highly sought-after and aesthetically pleasing floor plan boasts expansive living and dining areas accentuated by 10-foot ceilings.
The airy kitchen, also adorned with 10-foot ceilings, seamlessly connects to a two-story family room featuring a wood-burning fireplace. Designed to delight culinary enthusiasts, the gourmet kitchen showcases hardwood floors, marble backsplash tiles, a 6-burner Viking gas range, a 2-drawer GE Monogram beverage fridge, Bosch dishwasher, and ample counter space. Sliding doors open to a charming patio, perfect for alfresco dining.
The primary bedroom suite exudes luxury with a tray ceiling, gas fireplace, and a marble bath encompassing an oversized whirlpool tub, double sinks, a glass-enclosed shower, and two walk-in closets courtesy of California Closets. Adjacent to the primary suite, a second bedroom boasts its private bath and a generously sized walk-in closet. The convenience extends to a sunlit laundry room on the same floor, featuring large windows over its sink.
Ascending to the top floor, a versatile space awaits as a third bedroom with a full bath or a tranquil office illuminated by a skylight.
