Greenwich Connecticut, "The Gateway to New England" is conveniently located 28 miles from mid-town Manhattan, yet presents a panorama of natural beauty and picturesque charms. Its 50 square miles encompass all aspects of country living, from its waterfront coastline dotted with sailboats, through mid-country sprinkled with protected conservation land and riding trails, to back country’s rolling hills studded with polo fields and horse farms. Homes in Greenwich range from  condominiums, to attractive New England colonials, to impressive estates and waterfront properties providing something for everyone in this most desirable community.
