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.

In the area along the coastline, a delightful group of communities, Byram Shore, Belle Haven, Cos Cob, Old Greenwich and Riverside, are found which feature a choice from rambling estates and vast manors to smaller cottages and charming condominiums. Inland, the landscape and architecture are equally lovely with rolling hills and carefully-manicured properties of Round Hill, while Glenville and Banksville still retain their village atmospheres.

An abundance of leisure and cultural activities exist in Greenwich. Swim clubs, two inland lakes and municipal and private marinas are sure to satisfy the demands of the aquatic enthusiast. Picnicking, hiking and horse-back riding are enjoyed at public parks and trails. Conservation groups, a Symphony Orchestra, Art Society, a Senior Center, two Civic Centers, local theater groups and an excellent health care system illustrate the town's tremendous interest in culture. Greenwich Avenue is home to a vibrant shopping district with everything from family-owned stores to national chains, Saks Fifth Avenue, and many restaurants. There’s something for everyone in Greenwich.
