Country Living,
Just Outside the City
When a key senior executive began his tenure at a
one of the world’s leading New York private equity
firms, he sought a more relaxing home environment
outside the confines of Manhattan. He found
it at 21 Hurlingham Drive, situated within the
neighborhood of Conyers Farm, just 38 minutes
by train to the heart of the city. There, his family
was able to enjoy the wide-open space and amazing
amenities living on 13 acres has to offer, including
a tennis court / ice rink, telescope / observatory,
movie theater, 3000-bottle wine cellar and the
potential of entertaining hundreds of guests. This
story showcases 21 Hurlingham Drive as a fantastic
alternative to the city lifestyle for New York C-level
executives and their families looking for more space,
a slower pace and room to grow together.

Greenwich’s Best-Kept
[Neighborhood] Secret:
Aside from their presence on the big and small
screens, what do Ron Howard, former New York
Knick Allan Houston and former CNN anchor
Paula Zahn have in common? They’ve all lived in
the iconic yet little-known neighborhood of Conyers
Farm. “Sports figures, C-level executives and famous
people can live anywhere in the world, but they
choose to live here,” says a neighborhood resident.
At Conyers Farm, no property features less than 10
acres of land. The gated community is also home to
one of the world’s best polo fields. This story takes
an in-depth look at the past, present and future
of a neighborhood for those looking for luxury
East-Coast living without the visibility that comes
with a Manhattan address.

An East-Coast Estate For
Four-Season Entertaining:
The 13-acre grounds and thoughtfully designed
interiors at 21 Hurlingham Drive make it a fantastic
space for entertaining. The home provides a great
photographic / staging background for partyplanning stories in any season of the year. Media
outlets can show readers how to throw a small
dinner or lunch event for eight in the English
greenhouse in the spring or a fire-and-ice themed
party on the hockey rink and adjoining fire pit in
the winter. There’s a pool with tropical landscaping
in the summer, and the surrounding tree line creates
a colorful backdrop in the fall. If you’re searching
for the perfect location to shoot a fantastic partyplanning or event story, this is it.

City Meets Country: New York Executives Are
Flocking To Hurlingham at Conyers Farm
Irvine, CA - April 22, 2015 - When a key senior executive began his tenure at one of the world’s leading
New York private equity firms, he was already entrenched in New York City life. But by the time his first
child arrived in 1990, his family was ready for a change of venue. “I had lived in the city for ten years [prior
to the move] and we thought it made sense to raise our children in a place with a lot more space and range
of activity,” he says.
S H O R T F I L M : “A F U L L L I F E ”
He found all that and more in the iconic Neighborhood of Conyers Farm, in Greenwich, Connecticut.
“We looked at virtually every community in Westchester and within reasonable proximity to New York, in
Fairfield County,” says the exec. “And Conyers Farm and Greenwich really stood out.”
It was within Conyers Farm that he discovered his future family home of 20 years: 21 Hurlingham Drive.
Sitting on 13 acres, the property afforded all the recreational opportunities, privacy and amenities a busy
C-level executive and his family could wish for, less than an hour’s commute from the city.
Through the years, the family has enjoyed the hot-air balloon events and world-class Polo matches at
Conyers Farm’s exclusive polo field and taken 8-mile bike rides on trails located almost entirely within
neighborhood boundaries. They have also made the home their own, constructing a state-of-the-art
telescope, a hockey rink, an English greenhouse a movie theater and more, all on property grounds. In
addition, the seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom, 12,988 square-foot home has also allowed the family to
host large events or accommodate family and friends who come home for the holidays.
D O C U M E N TA R Y F I L M : “A L O O K I N S I D E ”
“In New York, we were living in a two-bedroom apartment. There, you had to negotiate for a tiny piece of
park land in the middle of the city,” he says. “When we moved to Conyers Farm, I didn’t quite realize we’d
be living in our own park setting. But now that I’ve had time to be here, I’ve realized there isn’t anything
quite like it. If you want space, you want the outdoors, and flexibility to do what you want with your
property, you have that here — and at the luxury level you want.”
