The stone and wood colonial house at 6 Cobble Hill Road sits on a one-acre level property on a cul-de-sac in Westport’s Old Hill neighborhood.
It was built in 2012 with modern amenities “creating the perfect oasis for today’s family; … a private retreat minutes from town and train,” according to the listing agent. The location of this 14-room house at the end of a cul-de-sac in Westport’s Old Hill neighborhood places it within convenient proximity of the Post Road (Route 1), shops, restaurants, Kings Highway Elementary School, the public library, and the Levitt Pavilion. It is also close to Earthplace - the Nature Discovery Center and its Newman-Woodward hiking trail and Wheels in the Woods trail, suitable for wheelchairs and strollers.
