The five-bedroom home was built in 2003 and has over 10,000 square feet of space. The home has a Canadian limestone exterior with unique elliptical reflecting pools with lights and fountain and a heated oval-in-ground pool.

Last week, we mentioned that condos in a small town in North Carolina were having a hard time selling but that doesn't seem to the case for a condo building in Stamford, Connecticut. According to theStamford Advocate nearly half the condominiums and townhouses at The Metropolitan , an office building turned into luxury residences, have been sold. The building contains 40 condos, including three $1.6 million penthouses. The condominiums have high ceilings with large windows and covered parking spaces and the building includes a concierge, a fitness center, a club room with a temperature-controlled wine cellar, a flat-screen television and a bar. The project is the first large-scale conversion of downtown office space in the area and offers a more urban lifestyle for residents of the town. Prices range from $450,000 to $1.6 million.
