Greenwich, Conn. $4.35 million This “mid-country retreat” is “tucked away” — insofar as one can tuck away a “picturesque” 5.85-acre estate — in the Round Hill section of town. The clapboard Colonial, an “exquisitely renovated country treasure” originally built in 1935, offers six bedrooms and 6 1/2 bathrooms among its 8,940 square feet of interior space. All that room allows for a “flexible” floor plan with the “beautifully appointed” public rooms — notable for the “custom architectural details,” fireplaces and “rich, hardwood floors” — more than adequately separated from the private chambers on the first two floors. Meanwhile, the lower level offers an exercise room and sauna as well as additional quarters for staff. Agent: Renee Gallagher, Round Hill Partners, 203-861-0050

Upper West Side $6.995 million Before reacting to the price tag, consider that this “showcase” of a home on Broadway is the recent beneficiary of a “million-dollar-plus” renovation that has left it dripping with the “highest-level” finishes, from the mahogany doors and the “magnificent” custom-designed molding to everything you’ll find in the “high-end” kitchen and each of the three “enormous” bedrooms (along with 3 1/2 bathrooms). Consider, too, the 12-foot ceilings and that the apartment occupies a high corner of the Apple Savings Bank condo conversion (how many apartment buildings have a vault?), with amenities including a gym and a “pet-showering area” (yes, you read that correctly). Agents: Ann Cutbill Lenane and Deirdre DeRisi, Prudential Douglas Elliman, 212-769-9862 and 212-769-9824

East Hampton, LI $3.95 million If you’re looking for a “farmhouse” that feels about as big as a farm, this 5,000-square-foot post-and-beam residence should fit the bill. Blending “the best of country living” with “the ultimate in taste and style,” this “recently renovated” home includes six bedrooms, 5 1/2 bathrooms and plenty of family and entertaining rooms, from the “antique pine-paneled” study to the “professional-grade” kitchen to the “jewel in the crown”: a “soaring” 2 1/2-story-high great room with timber beams and “magnificent” windows that fill the room with light. The property, which begins with a long, tree-lined driveway, also includes a heated swimming pool and — of course! — a barn. Agent: Ed Brody, Halstead Property, 631-324-6100, ext. 308
