Haus Lumen

LUMEN HOUSE | BACKCOUNTRY GREENWICH

Set behind a private bridge on four gated acres of west-facing land, Lumen House is a 10,000+ square foot modern estate that transcends the ordinary. Conceived through a rare collaboration between Boutique Project Development, Atkins Construction Group, and the celebrated Vakota Architecture, this six-bedroom, nine-and-a-half-bath residence stands as one of Backcountry Greenwich’s most significant architectural achievements.

A grand entrance announces itself with soaring 40-foot ceilings and a floating steel staircase — a sculptural prelude to the refined interiors beyond. Expansive French oak floors, natural Italian lime plaster walls, and walls of oversized glass dissolve the boundary between the home and its wooded surroundings, filling every room with light and an abiding sense of calm.

The custom Italian kitchen by Bellavista Collection is a study in form and function: Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, an eleven-foot island, and a fully concealed scullery ensure this space performs as beautifully as it looks. Open-concept living areas flow seamlessly to a resort-caliber backyard, where a pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, and multiple entertaining terraces await — each oriented to capture the celebrated west-facing sunsets.

The primary suite is a private sanctuary unto itself, complete with a terrace overlooking the grounds, a spa-inspired bath, a fireplace, and bespoke walk-in closets. Eleven-foot ceilings on the main level and ten-foot ceilings above, paired with integrated linear diffusers throughout, reflect an obsessive attention to detail that elevates every moment spent within these walls.

Beyond the residence, a pool house, fully equipped gym, home theater, safe room, and a three-car garage with fourteen-foot ceilings — accommodating a car lift with ease — complete an offering that is as practical as it is extraordinary.

A work of architecture. A private retreat. An estate without compromise.
