DREAM YOUR TOMORROW This 1.05 acre of dry, level land that is available for sale, is beautifully sited in the middle of Westport's Old Hill and awaits your imagination. Enter through the original gates of the 1928 Arthur Whiteside Estate at 50 Sylvan North --- the park-like entry to the 25-acre estate built for Whiteside, who founded and headed the commercial credit rating firm of Dun & Bradstreet. There in the 1930's, he perfected a system whereby a client could receive an accurate credit rating on a business within 2 minutes of a request. Whiteside's original Tudor home is visible in the distance where the Sellers of Lot #1 will remain in residence on Lot #2. LOT 1 FOR SALE is flat, pristine and park-like, and enclosed by 1920's fieldstone drywalls which run a full 450' along Sylvan Road North frontage. The Town-Approved Site Plan (FOR DESIGN DEVELOPMENT NOT CONSTRUCTION) is open for refinement by the Buyer and has Sewer and City Water available at street for connection. Note that Seller has requested feedback from Southern CT Gas about possible hookup to an existing natural gas line across Sylvan North, but awaiting response by the SCG field manager. Buyer has creative flexibility with siting of their Lot 1 home, utility lines, and other construction-related details. Land Use Attorney Joel Z Green has drafted Deed Restrictions that are attached to this listing. The restrictions detail a square footage guideline of 4500sf and 30ft height on the building, with, requirement that all home designs must be compatible with the existing antique estate on Lot 2. All interested parties should review the captioned photos that are a part of this listing. More information will be provided at a DropBox Link as soon as "Style Inspirations" and other information become available. This is an opportunity for lovers of antique design and imagination to merge with history of yesterday and create something new and iconic as we launch into this property's next 100 years!
