Located northeast of Stamford, and a few miles inland from Long Island Sound, New Canaan covers a little more than 20 square miles filled with pastoral country roads, rustic stone walls and majestic old trees. In the town center, you'll find an eclectic mix of cafes, restaurants, boutiques and antique shops. Points of interest also include God's Acres and the New Canaan Historical Society.

Residents refer with pride to the quaint New England village as the "Next Station to Heaven." In town you will find everything from modest condominiums to luxury townhouses, all within a short stroll to the village. With Manhattan only 41 highway miles away or a 70-minute train ride, commuting or pleasure trips to New York City are a breeze.

Homes, gardens, houses of worship, businesses and institutions integrate with old-fashioned harmonies that make New Canaan the kind of place anyone would love to call home.
