Philip Johnson-Designed Midcentury Modern on Oenoke Ridge Sells for $2.3 Million

Philip Johnson Ball Residence New Canaan, CT
A prominent Midcentury Modern home designed by Philip Johnson has sold for $2.3 million, according to a property transfer recorded Monday in the Town Clerk’s office. The 1953-built ‘Alice Ball House’ at 523 Oenoke Ridge Road—built just after the Glass House—includes three bedrooms, 2,500 square feet of living space and sits on 2.2 acres, its assessor field card says. It had been listed on the market last summer at $2.8 million, according to Architectural Digest. Its owner since she bought the house for $1.5 million in 2005, Cristina Ross, sold it to ‘Main Liberty LLC,’ according to the transfer. It isn’t clear who owns that company—no entity by that name is listed with the Connecticut Secretary of the State, according to the agency’s online database.
