Greenwich, Conn.

On the road of life, a dead end is no place to be headed. On the road to your home -- especially if that home is a Connecticut estate -- a dead end is precisely where you want to wind up. In this case, at the end of the road (Burning Tree Road to be precise), you'll find more than 2 acres of very private property, with an "exquisite" and "classic" Colonial home, a barn, a "charming" children's playhouse and even some room left over for a pool, if you want to add one. The 3,758-square-foot house -- originally built in 1960, but updated and expanded in the last decade -- includes four bedrooms and 4½ bathrooms, as well as a dining room, family room, library and deck. So when you get to that dead end, keep on going.
