The Great Outdoors
7 Grey Fox Lane offers the perfect blend of community feel and natural beauty. The lot shelters amongst three adjacent cul-de-sacs, providing the perfect locale for long neighborhood jogs and Halloween trick or treating. The house perches comfortably atop the 2.76 acre lot, gazing down on the flat, expansive backyard.
While the front courtyard offers a warm welcome to guests, the backyard provides a private retreat and plenty of space for all your activities (inc. pre-approved pool site).
For an even deeper immersion into the great outdoors, Grey Fox Lane itself abuts the 1756 scenic acres of Devil’s Den Nature Preserve (see info below).
Friendly & Formal, Flexible & Functional
Alba Construction designed this home to provide the balance of comfort and functionality sought by today’s homeowner. Generously apportioned formal living and dining rooms provide traditional but flexible spaces to host lively gatherings, while the kitchen/great room creates an open, modern area for family and friends to hang out.
Kitchen
This bright, modern kitchen was scrumptiously designed to be both aesthetically polished and hardworking. The handpicked quartz countertops and backsplash set the tone for this beautiful space, complemented by to-the-ceiling cove moldings and plenty of natural light. The top of the line appliances include a Viking Professional Series, 48” six-burner gas range and wall hood, Viking refrigerator/freezer, stainless steel dishwasher, and 30’ under-mount stainless farm sink with gooseneck faucet & sprayer.
The stunning oversized island operates as both the visual and design center of the room. The two-inch thick waterfall edge draws the eye, while the expansive prep space is a home chef’s dream. With additional storage and seating for six, this island will make you wonder how you got by without it.

Devil’s Den Nature Preserve
Lucius Pond Ordway/Devil’s Den Preserve is the largest contiguous nature preserve in southwestern Connecticut, with 1,756 acres of woodlands, wetlands, streams, rock ledges and rugged north-south ridges. Many of these ridges provide scenic overlooks of the surrounding countryside.
Some 20 miles of trails offer opportunities to visit diverse features including Godfrey Pond, a mill pond created in the 1700s; the Saugatuck Wildlife Refuge, an extensive shrubby marsh along the West Branch of the Saugatuck River; the Great Ledge, a high rock formation with a spectacular view; and Ambler Gorge, a picturesque ravine and stream with a rocky cascade. Katharine Ordway Preserve at 165 Goodhill Rd. has three miles of trails on 62 acres and an arboretum.
Biologically, The Nature Conservancy’s Devil’s Den is valuable because it is part of a much larger, species-rich landscape that encompasses nearly 15,000 acres of continuous forest. The preserve is home to 145 species of birds, 23 species of mammals and 475 varieties of trees and wildflowers.
