Beautiful downstairs apartment. Walk to town, train, & beach ferry!

Located on a quiet dead-end street, our fully renovated ground-floor apartment in central Greenwich boasts hardwood floors, a washer-dryer, heating, air conditioning, and a fabulous modern kitchen. The living room has a large screen 4k TV and an electric fireplace for you to enjoy. The private patio just off the dining room and master bedroom allows you to relax outside whenever you like.

The master bedroom comes with a king-sized mattress and all our mattresses are super comfortable.

Relax on the back patio or enjoy a BBQ in your own backyard. You can also take a short walk to downtown Greenwich and enjoy excellent restaurants, the library, parks, coffee shops, movie theaters, beach ferries (in the summer), and places to shop. Alternatively, you can take the train to Manhattan as the Greenwich train station is only an 8-minute walk away. We are also centrally located to explore the Tri-State area. Rye Playland, a fun-filled amusement park, and beach in Rye, NY are 12 mins away by car. This is also a great area for walking or jogging near the water.

Our property is also ideal to work from home. We have a desk in one of the bedrooms and lighting fast WiFi for you to enjoy.

Activities include biking, hiking, kayaking, and community-sponsored activities such as concerts and movie nights.

We would love to host you!

Great stay, one small problem.
The location was great and thre property was almost perfect for our needs. The only negative issue was ants. When we got up the first morning of our stay the counter was teeming with ants. There were several ant traps on the counters but they were pretty ineffective Otherwise, the house was great.

Idlewild Manor
I was delighted with the apartment my daughter, her 14 month old son and I rented from the owners via VRBO. The place was well set out and the owners went out of their way to get a high chair and cot for our stay. If I had a question, I was able to call the owner, Henri, and he was more then happy to help me out. The apartment was, also as described within easy walking distance of Greenwich Ave, Bruce Park and the ferry to Captain’s Island. I highly recommend this accommodation.

New York City visit May 2023
We had enjoyed our stay, excellent quiet area near downtown Greenwich and walking distance to frequent trains into NYC. We met friendly neighbors, walking distance to the Bruce Museum. We’re originally from just over the Connecticut state line. Back roads north of Greenwich are scenic, worth taking extra time to see by auto.

Great space and location.
The unit was very clean and larger than we thought. It is also so centrally located to get easy access to the highway and the owner was very nice to deal with.

Manhattan Wedding- Conneticut Reception
We could not have been happier with our choice! It was super clean, spacious, and very convenient. We enjoyed the short walk to the train we took to Manhattan several times. We also spend a night in a hotel in Manhattan, and even though it was closer to the NYC sites, it didn't hold a candle to Henri's place in Greenwich, CT!!

Perfect home away from reno
Henri hosted us at 5 Idlewild for 6 months with our newborn, 3 year old non shedding dog and my husband and myself. There are two great bedrooms for kids and one large primary with lots of storage. We converted the dinning room area to a mini office for work from home and utilized the counter setup for meals. Would highly recommend staying here for a weekend for part of the year. Henri takes really good care of the property and his guests.
