GREENWICH – A well-known developer has plans to build on a 2-acre, 90,000-square-foot lot on Dunwoodie Place soon after taking out a $4.8 million mortgage on the property in September, town records show.
CLT Sherwood Farm LLC, whose principals are James Gardiner and Mary Katherine Kelly, secured the mortgage with Braavos Lending LLC of Rocky Hill. Gardiner owns and operates CLT Development, a developer based in Fairfield. The mortgage is for construction of a building on the Dunwoodie Place site, which includes vacant land and a house.
Gardiners CLT Sherwood Farm LLC purchased the property from Brenda Dehmel for $1.73 million on Sept. 18. It was listed for $1.9 million in July and removed in August, to a RedFin real estate listing. It was built in 1967.
The house includes nine rooms, including a living room, family room, dining room, five bedrooms, three-and-half bathrooms, a breakfast nook, a mud room, and a two-car garage.
CLT Sherwood Farm also purchased a lot on Sherwood Farm Lane for $10 in December 2023 from Indian Spring Limited Partnership, which owns quite a few properties in that area of Greenwich.
Gardiner could not be reached for comment.
A recent CLT Construction luxury house at 7 Cherry Blossom Lane in Greenwich was sold for $6.9 million last month. It was on the market for 78 days.
That home includes 21 rooms with 10-feet ceilings, custom millwork and paneling, and oversized kitchen/family room leading to private land next to 10 acres of conservation land.
The 2-acre property also includes a saltwater pool and spa, a three-car heated garage and generator and walk-up attic in a gated community off the Taconic Parkway.
