Stamford, CT - Connecticut’s premier residential real estate firm, William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty has achieved record-breaking success in the sale of 69 Deer Meadow Lane in North Stamford, which closed the last week of 2011 for $4,650,000, setting Stamford’s highest selling price of 2011. Sotheby’s International Realty represented both the buyer and seller of this significant estate which was listed by Judy Amster, an award-winning top salesperson with William Pitt Sotheby’s International Realty.

The expansive six-bedroom residence offers 12,700± square feet of living space with grand entertaining rooms, an epicurean’s kitchen, a sprawling first-floor master wing, and smart-house technology. An elevator serves all three levels of the home including the 4,000+-square-foot lower level which hosts a poolside entertainment area with catering kitchen plus a climate-controlled wine cellar.
