The New Canaan Building Department on Aug. 15 received an application to build a 6,280-square-foot home on Gower Road.
The five-bedroom home planned for 25 Gower Road will include six full bathrooms, two half-baths, a finished 1,207-square-foot basement and 806-square-foot attic, two fireplaces and two-bay garage, according to the building permit application.
It will cost $900,000 to build, the application said.
The contractor on the job is Weston-based Eimeg LLC, the architect Dennis Peters of Wilton.
The .29-acre property was purchased for $1,759,000 last month, tax records show. A demolition permit was issued Wednesday for the 1,905-square-foot, 1948-built ranch-style house on the property.
Look! Another Giant White House. What happened to design? To creativity? To uniqueness and individuality? The first ten of these homes were great. But the next fifty? These won’t age well.
