Ridgefield CT Home For Sale: Sunset Hall

This video gives you a virtual home tour of the property at Sunset Hall Ridgefield, CT.
The legendary Sunset Hall has captivated the hearts of its keepers since built for Ambassador James Stokes in 1912 at Ridgefield's highest point to afford 50 mile views of the NY skyline & panoramic vistas of Round Lake from the widow walk perch. This regal Georgian has delighted subsequent notable owners including Houdini's brother, actor Robert Vaughan, & was even considered as a site for the United Nations. Over 100 years later, Sunset Hall has been lovingly restored to a dazzling splendor befitting its historic provenance with front to back grand entry hall & marble ballroom opening to formal gardens & pool. Grandeur extends to the 15,000 square foot; 8+ bedrooms & 6/4 baths; 9 fplcs; & private gated 7 acres with tennis court & 2 bedroom guest cottage, just 1 hour to NYC.

I was in this house many times when it was almost done being remodeled & I have to say it is truly amazing. The video barely does it justice. Every inch is perfect & it is just massive. It has some of the nicest details & craftsmanship I’ve ever seen. Any family that ends up here will be very happy.

I believe Dick Cavett lives in what is also called the Houdini House. Brother Harry used to practice escape tricks in the pool.
